Price demanded by kidnappers (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ransom

(Other definitions for ransom that I've seen before include "Kidnap money" , "Redeem" , "Payment, eg to kidnapper" , "Kidnapper's payoff" , "Payment demanded for someone's release" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
