Smoldering coal (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

'smoldering coal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for ember that I've seen before include "Cryptic question" , "showing residual fire" , "Glowing coal; prayer (Days)" , "Just a glimmer" , "Wood still burning" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal, the Penny Press and The Star Tribune.
