Reorder books and vans from deviants? (4)
I believe the answer is:
edit
'reorder' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'books and vans from deviants?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'from' could be 'e' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'e' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'dit' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for edit that I've seen before include "Amend text" , "Blue-pencil" , "Adjust text" , "Supervise - amend" , "Fix" .)
