The impossibility of direct communication; what happens when you must prove love without being able to say it
What this book is about
Gideon cannot say anything true—his demon forces him to speak only lies. Scarlet, keeper of Nightmares, is a woman connected to him from a past he doesn't remember. The Darkest Lie is the series' most inventive entry, building an entire romance around the question of how you communicate truth when you can only speak its opposite.
