== List of tropes ==
*Tomato Surprise: The last part of the third act takes place in an underground institute where scientists are working on creating a computer that simulates virtual reality. This is very out of touch with the main narrative.
*Through the Eyes of Madness: It is implied that Galbraith clearly does not see the incident in a normal state and that he is close to a breakdown - especially towards the end of the third act.
*Time Skip: It plays out in a strange way in the third act, when Galbraith gets into a taxi and ends up moving forward two months, with everyone around thinking that the inspector himself simply does not remember the current date.
*Technobabble: Almost all of the final chapters of the third act are of this nature, as the computer specialist brings the clue to the clueless police inspector.
*Take That!: In the third act, from Heathrow Airport to the "Stait of Snow Lake" Galbraith was driven by a taxi driver, who starts a conversation with the passenger on the topic of how modern literature panders to the base instincts of the audience and cites Stephen King's "Carrie" as an example, quoting a line from the very first page of this work. This passage itself is a reworking of the short quote "Like Carrie setting fire to the prom powerful?" that was said by a random character in the movie Omen IV: The Awakening, who inspired this work.
