Crossword Genius

The body in the box (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trunk

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'the body' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'the box' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for trunk that I've seen before include "Proboscis" , "main part of plane" , "Large storage box" , "Baggage item" , "Main body - chest" .)
