Slink (5)

I think it could be either:

sneak

creep

'slink' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sneak that I've seen before include "Slink, skulk; tell tales" , "Snitcher" , "thief" , "Creep" , "Petty informer" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and The Sun.
