Concept
“The concept of a ‘crime scene’ is different when you can see the digital signatures of every device that was in the room.” (p. 22)
Behavior

Game Theory
“A murder investigation is a game of ‘find the outlier’; the killer is the one whose data doesn’t match the social rhythm of the station.” (p. 124)
Cognition
“Solving a mystery requires a type of inductive cognition that isn’t in my standard security protocols, which is annoying.” (p. 89)
Memory
“I cross-indexed the victim’s memory-stamped data against the station logs, looking for the one second where the truth was hidden.” (p. 167)
