High points of the Danse Macabre (5)
I believe the answer is:
andes
'high points of' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'danse macabre' is the wordplay.
'danse' can be anagrammed to 'ANDES'.
But, I am unsure how this is indicated.
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for andes that I've seen before include "Mountain range in South America" , "Danes seen in mountains" , "Mountains for the Danes, oddly" , "Mountains of 6 dn" , "South American mountain system" .)
