Off course (6)

I think it could be either:

adrift

astray

'off course' is the definition.
(to be led astray is to be led off course)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for astray that I've seen before include "Wandering off the track" , "Wandering off the path" , "Gone off the right path" , "on the wrong road" , "in the wrong place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, the Penny Press, The Telegraph, The Wall Street Journal, the Newsday, the USA Today, the Evening Standard, The Mirror, The Guardian, The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
