“Woman of action” describes KrisKross’ boss (8)
I believe the answer is:
domineer
'boss' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'woman of action describes kriskross'' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'woman' could be 'min' and 'min' is found in the answer.
'of' could be 'o' and 'o' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'deer' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for domineer that I've seen before include "Deem iron to be changed to overbear" , "Browbeat" , "Tyrrannise" , "Behave imperiously" , "Dine more and be overbearing" .)
