Private eye quite angry in being found out (7,5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

inquiry agent

'private eye' is the definition.
(inquiry agent is a kind of private eye)

'quite angry in being found out' is the wordplay.
'being found out' indicates an anagram (discovered out of the normal letter order).
'quite'+'angry'+'in'='quiteangryin'
'quiteangryin' anagrammed gives 'INQUIRY AGENT'.

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
