Vindictive (8)

Ross

I think it could be either:

spiteful

vengeful

'vindictive' is the definition.
(I know that vindictive can be written as spiteful)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for spiteful that I've seen before include "Showing malice" , "Malevolent, wanting to hurt" , "Catty" , "With desire to hurt" , "nasty!" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Mirror and The Guardian.
