Crossword Genius

Snake among Angela's possessions (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

asp

'snake' is the definition.
(asp is a kind of snake)

'among angela's possessions' is the wordplay.
'among' indicates the answer is hidden within the clue.
'ASP' is hidden in the letters of 'angelas possessions'.

(Other definitions for asp that I've seen before include "creeper" , "Snake found in spa" , "Cold-blooded killer" , "Venomous snake" , "This Egyptian killer" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
