US city gave lass shivers (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
las vegas
'us city' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'gave lass shivers' is the wordplay.
'shivers' is an anagram indicator (I've seen 'shivering' mean this).
'gave'+'lass'='gavelass'
'gavelass' is an anagram of 'LAS VEGAS'.
(Other definitions for las vegas that I've seen before include "Gambling city in Nevada, USA" , "place in America" , "Famous gambling city in Nevada" , "Nevada's largest city" , "Nevada city famed for casinos" .)
