Keep secret; skin (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hide

This clue is a double definition.

'keep secret' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'skin' is the second definition.
(hide is a kind of skin)

(Other definitions for hide that I've seen before include "Animal's tough skin" , "Conceal with leather" , "mask" , "Bury" , "Place to observe wildlife" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
