Intrigue (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scheme

'intrigue' is the definition.
(I know that intrigue can be written as scheme)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for scheme that I've seen before include "Secret plan, plot" , "Program" , "Plan - intrigue" , "Lay plans" , "Plan (maybe best laid?)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The New York Times, The Guardian and The Telegraph.
