Left behind (8)

Ross

I think it could be either:

forsaken

stranded

'left behind' is the definition.
(forsaking is a kind of leaving behind)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for forsaken that I've seen before include "Helpless" , "Left abandoned and deserted" , "Abandoned; renounced" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times, the LA Times and the Sydney Morning Herald.
