Killer for hire (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

assassin

(Other definitions for assassin that I've seen before include "Asians SS? (Anag)" , "Killer of prominent person" , "A killer of political or religious leader" , "Hitman" , "Booth, for example" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
