Crossword Genius

Carer she involved in fact-finding (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

research

'fact-finding' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'carer she involved' is the wordplay.
'involved' is an anagram indicator (involved can mean confusing or complex).
'carer'+'she'='carershe'
'carershe' anagrammed gives 'RESEARCH'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for research that I've seen before include "Thoroughly investigate" , "Investigation designed to expand knowledge" , "Fact-finding" , "Scientific investigation" , "Investigate through study" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
