House the boss here temporarily, as narc oddly went berserk (3,8,4)
I believe the answer is:
new scotland yard
'house the boss here temporarily' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'as narc oddly went berserk' is the wordplay.
'berserk' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'as'+'narc'+'oddly'+'went'='asnarcoddlywent'
'asnarcoddlywent' with letters rearranged gives 'NEW SCOTLAND YARD'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for new scotland yard that I've seen before include "police HQ" , "A place for pigs!" .)
