| The entire clause :? - you mean 'The way she will come' - i.e. 'her route'? It seems to me that that functions as a noun. This too is suggested by the it in 'It is not clear to me how she will come'. b |

| The adjectival clause is "she will come". It modifies "way", which is the subject of the sentence. |
