Close investigation (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scrutiny

'close investigation' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for scrutiny that I've seen before include "Close, careful examination" , "Intense study" , "Detailed perusal" , "Close investigation" , "A careful look or examination" .)
