Shrivel (6)

Ross

I think it could be either:

shrink

wither

'shrivel' is the definition.
(I know that shrivel can be written as shrink)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for shrink that I've seen before include "Become smaller, contract" , "Grow smaller like slang psychiatrist" , "Withdraw from" , "Become smaller like slang psychiatrist" , "decline" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph, the Evening Standard and The Mirror.
