It was her mother's most unnerving trait. She could pinpoint with breathtaking accuracy the areas where you were perfectly secure, and then undermine them with reassurances. The Ludens, of course, were fairly immune. As Indiana had once remarked, unless you made it a major project, you could only work emotionally stable people over if you started young enough.
A married couple adjusts to being back together after the reporter husband does a short stint in prison for refusing to identify a source. The story is mostly vibes, and pretty dated ones, although the political elements aren't: he's committed to free speech as a child of Hungarian immigrants. But it's mostly about the relationship, and though I usually love how LL writes them, this came off as too purple. A soft pick.

“The components of a free press are reporters who aren't afraid to tell a story and citizens who aren't afraid to talk to reporters.“
“Could you explain why you think criminals have the right to that kind of shield?“
“Could you explain why, in a nation that assumes innocence until conviction, you would stick a label like 'criminal' on people who've never been convicted of a crime?“
