Thanks quisling for endorsing my parsing. Glad to know it is correct.

Help appreciated:

Chief finished probing crime about women going missing (8)

Sorry, only just saw this. Definition is chief. Reverse a word for crime, losing its initial W (women) and surround a four letter word for finished, completed

Thank you, quisling!

Please help me in parsing / solving this cryptic clue -
"Make a denial about short article, rebellious and not ready to be disciplined (12)"

Thanks. Could parse it on my own neatly and could get the word.

Well done, Bharat. It’s not an easy clue, even though the parsing is clear

Please help me in parsing / solving this cryptic clue -
"Find fault with book describing setter's confused situation (9)"

Thought of criticise with crisis being situation but could not annotate further. So dropped it. Please help me

Thanks could solve it on my own with neat parsing. Took def as "Confused situation" 3 letter word for find fault + 4 letter word book containing setter's reversal

Thanks quisling for your encouraging appreciation
