Hounded for every dry duet performed (10)
I believe the answer is:
persecuted
'hounded' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'every dry duet performed' is the wordplay.
'every' becomes 'per' ('per' means 'for each' or 'for every').
'dry' becomes 'sec' ('dry' in French - used for wine).
'performed' indicates an anagram.
'duet' is an anagram of 'uted'.
'per'+'sec'+'uted'='PERSECUTED'
'for' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for persecuted that I've seen before include "abused" , "Ill-treated" , "Persistently harassed" .)
