Investigative journey in haste (10)

I believe the answer is:

expedition

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

This could be a double definition.

'investigative journey' is the first definition.
'expedition' can be an answer for 'journey' (expedition is a kind of journey). I'm unsure of the 'investigative' bit.

'haste' is the second definition.
(expedition can mean doing something speedily)

'in' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for expedition that I've seen before include "journey" , "Quest" , "Promptness" , "haste" , "Dispatch" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
