Part of boomerang led off and turned in a different direction (6)
I believe the answer is:
angled
'turned in a different direction' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'part of boomerang led off' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates a hidden word.
'ANGLED' is hidden within 'boomerang led off'.
'and' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for angled that I've seen before include "Crooked; biased" , "Fished with rod and line" , "Glenda (anag.)" , "Fished with hook and bait" , "Slanted" .)
