Will extra police get sent back in a loop? (7)
I believe the answer is:
codicil
'will extra police' is the definition.
'codicil' can be an answer for 'will' (thesaurus). I'm not sure about the 'extra police' bit.
'sent back in a loop?' is the wordplay.
'sent' becomes 'cid' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'back' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'a loop?' becomes 'coil' (I've seen this before).
'cid' back-to-front is 'dic'.
'dic' put inside 'coil' is 'CODICIL'.
'get' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for codicil that I've seen before include "Will's supplement" , "Additional item appended to a will" , "Addendum to will" , "Modifier to will" , "Addition to a will" .)
