Indifference caused by losing one's grip? (13)
I believe the answer is:
offhandedness
'indifference' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'losing one's grip?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'one' could be 'an' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'an' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
'caused by' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for offhandedness that I've seen is " Nonchalant and cool manner".)
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
