Strangely, this rogue is not like a rogue (9)
I believe the answer is:
righteous
'not like a rogue' is the definition.
'strangely this rogue' is the wordplay.
'strangely' is an anagram indicator.
'this'+'rogue'='thisrogue'
'thisrogue' is an anagram of 'RIGHTEOUS'.
'is' is the link.
(Other definitions for righteous that I've seen before include "Morally justified" , "Good!" , "Morally justifiable, or people who behave thus" , "Showing virtue" , "Moral - virtuous" .)
