In a clever way, is not part of Solidarity (8)
I believe the answer is:
adroitly
'in' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adverbs. Maybe you can see a link between them that I can't see?
I don't understand the rest of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for adroitly that I've seen before include "With dexterity" , "Idolatry (anag) -- with skill" , "Quickly and skilfully" , "Dexterously" , "in masterly fashion" .)
