'what one might do' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'second french winter?' is the wordplay.
'second' becomes 's' (common abbreviation).
'french winter?' becomes 'hiver' (I've seen this in another clue).
's'+'hiver'='SHIVER'

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for shiver that I've seen before include "Shake with cold; splinter" , "Tremble from cold or with fear" , "Momentary tremble" , "Shake uncontrollably" , "Slightly shake" .)
