Heat best adjusted by the Antichrist (3,5)
I believe the answer is:
the beast
'antichrist' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Maybe you can see an association between them that I don't see?
'heat best adjusted' is the wordplay.
'adjusted' indicates an anagram.
'heat'+'best'='heatbest'
'heatbest' anagrammed gives 'THE BEAST'.
'by the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
