Claim agent's persona (5)
I believe the answer is:
image
'persona' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'claim agent's' is the wordplay.
'IMAGE' is hidden in amongst the letters.
But, I am uncertain how this is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for image that I've seen before include "Picture; simile" , "Visible impression" , "Pictorial representation" , "public perception" , "Epitome" .)
