Woman likely to have the most lines of smack, I'm told (7)
I believe the answer is:
heroine
'woman' is the definition.
(I know that heroine is a type of woman)
'smack i'm told' is the wordplay.
'smack' becomes 'heroin' (synonyms).
'i'm told' shows a homophone (sound like).
'heroin' sounds like 'HEROINE'.
'likely to have the most lines of' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may be part of another bit of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for heroine that I've seen before include "Leading lady" , "Woman of outstanding courage" , "Eg, Emma, Jane Eyre" , "Brave woman" , "Emma, for example" .)
