Wren perhaps in the Arctic, oddly (9)
I believe the answer is:
architect
'wren perhaps' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'the arctic oddly' is the wordplay.
'oddly' is an anagram indicator (letters in an odd order).
'the'+'arctic'='thearctic'
'thearctic' with letters rearranged gives 'ARCHITECT'.
'in' is the link.
(Other definitions for architect that I've seen before include "Designer of buildings" , "Wren perhaps" , "Author" , "Perhaps Scott" , "professional" .)
