Outline suspicion (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trace

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'outline' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'suspicion' is the second definition.
(suspicion can mean a small trace)

(Other definitions for trace that I've seen before include "plan" , "Vestige, hint" , "Make a copy using transparent paper" , "Smidgen" , "Suggestion of rain" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
