They were honest with each other—honest in ways that only people who have known each other for a long time, loved each other for a long time, can be. But what Shaw wanted to say, what he couldn’t quite put into words, was that the honesty between them was, in its own way, also a kind of lie. He wanted to tell North that their honesty glided across smooth water, but that there was an ocean of things below the surface, things they never said. [Triangulation, p. 39]

I read the first of these three novels (Orientation) free via Kindle Unlimited, and then bought the second and third (Triangulation and Declination) and carried on reading without a break.
