Where Maud's lover could have misled her? (2,3,6,4)
I believe the answer is:
up the garden path
'where maud's lover could have misled' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.
'her?' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'her?' could be 'arden' and 'arden' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of clue (or it may be nonsense).
(Other definitions for up the garden path that I've seen before include "to the stocks?" , "Where one may be mistakenly led" , "the wrong way" .)
