Murder an explorer (5)
I believe the answer is:
burke
'murder' is the definition.
(burking is a kind of murdering)
I can't explain the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for burke that I've seen before include "Body-snatcher" , "Hare's partner in several Edinburgh murders" .)
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
