In Predator , are rebels more difficult to find? (5)
I believe the answer is:
rarer
'more difficult to find?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'in predator are rebels' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'RARER' is hidden within 'predator are rebels'.
(Other definitions for rarer that I've seen before include "Comparatively sparse" , "steak may be wanted thus?" , "less easy to find" , "(Of meat) less cooked" , "Less often seen" .)
