Penance (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

atonement

'penance' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for atonement that I've seen before include "satisfaction" , "Expiation of sin, penance" , "Compensation for a wrong" , "'Penance, redemption (9)'" , "Reparation (for a wrong)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, The Star Tribune and the New York Times.
