Here's an example: White to play and win
Alekhine-West 1923
1Qh7+!! lures the King to a bad square.
1..Kh7
2Rg7+! Rg7
2Rg7+! Rg7
3Nf6+ Kg6
4 Bh5# Magnificent combination by the genius Alekhine, well ahead of his time.
* * *
Now White to play and win using this theme (and also motif II Deflection)
Ex: Schmidt-Heidelberg 1946

5Ne8+! is a difficult move to see.
Well done !
