Overlooks spinsters (6)
I believe the answer is:
misses
This clue could be a double definition.
'overlooks' is the first definition.
('miss' can be a synonym of 'overlook')
'spinsters' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both people as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for misses that I've seen before include "Overlooks" , "Unsuccessful attempts" , "young women" , "Unmarried ladies" , "Doesn't hit; young ladies" .)
