Answers in which the little agent doesn't tell the truth (7)
I believe the answer is:
replies
'answers' is the definition.
(to reply is to give an answer)
'the little agent doesn't tell the truth' is the wordplay.
'the little agent' becomes 'rep' (short for representative. I am not sure about the 'little' bit.).
'doesn't tell the truth' becomes 'lies' (I've seen this in another clue).
'rep'+'lies'='REPLIES'
'in which' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for replies that I've seen before include "Answers" , "Reacts verbally" , "Responds" .)
