Off course (6)

I think it could be either:

adrift

astray

'off course' is the definition.
(to be led astray is to be led off course)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for astray that I've seen before include "Wandering off the track" , "Wandering off the path" , "Gone off the right path" , "on the wrong road" , "in the wrong place" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror, the Evening Standard, The Telegraph, the USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, the Penny Press, the Newsday, The New York Times, The Times, The Star Tribune, The Guardian and the King Feature Syndicate.
