Spy novelist Deighton (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

len

(Other definitions for len that I've seen before include "Leonard (dim.)" , "Boy" , "- - Hutton, cricketer" , "Sir - - Hutton" , "-- Deighton, author" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the Universal, The Wall Street Journal and the King Feature Syndicate.
