One exacting retribution (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

avenger

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">one exacting retribution</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this before)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is the entire clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for avenger that I've seen before include "He seeks satisfaction or retribution" , "Someone wanting to get even" , "One who retaliates -- engrave (anag)" , "Fury results" , "One getting his own back" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
