Quickly pass to the suspect (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

posthaste

'quickly' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'pass to the suspect' is the wordplay.
'suspect' indicates an anagram.
'pass'+'to'+'the'='passtothe'
'passtothe' anagrammed gives 'POSTHASTE'.

(Other definitions for posthaste that I've seen before include "Express" , "With great speed, like delivery of letters?" , "With utmost speed -- to the pass (anag)" , "at the double" , "Like Bat out of Hell" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
