Sneakiness — the last resort? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stealth

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

'the last resort?' is the wordplay.
'resort?' indicates anagramming the letters (re-sort the letters).
'the'+'last'='thelast'
'thelast' is an anagram of 'STEALTH'.

(Other definitions for stealth that I've seen before include "Cats display this" , "word to define secrecy" , "Unseen machination" , "Quiet or secret way of behaviour" , "Furtive behaviour" .)
