== List of tropes ==
*Villain with Good Publicity: Doctor Baselard. In the sixties, he accidentally kills a woodcutter in Gloucester, but this does not stop him many years later from getting a job at Randall Children's Hospital. And to make matters worse, when he eventually escapes Portland back to England, the American police see no point in pursuing him.
*Verbed Title: It’s a stretch, but the name itself is "Always Visible".
*Vagueness Is Coming : The very first thing you read is Delia's nightmare of five men killing an invisible man. This is a foreshadowing of what the story will tell later about her friend Jo, whom society has effectively "made invisible" from her own eyes.
*Violation of Common Sense: In the third act, Inspector Galbraith receives a phone number from a London taxi driver, but when he calls it, it ends up in his home police department in Portland. This is followed by a scene where he gets into a taxi and travels forward two months in time.
