In a penetrating way (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

keenly

'in a penetrating way' is the definition.
(I know this)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for keenly that I've seen before include "In an eager manner" , "With eagerness" , "Eagerly, sharply" , "With enthusiasm" , "Eagerly, enthusiastically" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
