Hello, Local paper has cryptic clue One kept - in suspense? Answer is looking like Defendent??? As usual, if that's the answer I don't see why, so explanations or corrected answer would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

Thanks fiction-factory, can see the ent and the ant bit. Still not sure where the suspense comes from? Obviously my little grey cells aren't working!
One kept (looked after) = DEPENDANT = if you are kept in suspense, you are dependant
