Summary

Confronting the demons of one's past should be familiar ground for John Constantine. But some vicious memories are so horrible and buried so deep that digging them up could leave no one to pick up the pieces.

Dreams of what could be and the nightmares of what is clash in John Constantine's mind as he slips in and out of fevered consciousness while past and present collide. A journey through the darkness of his heart discovers fear, regret, and the most terrible emotion of all--love.

As strange as it sounds, seducing a 2,000-year-old demon with a grudge isn't the riskiest stunt John Constantine has ever pulled. But tipping the supernatural scales for a chance at love will exact a cost higher than he ever thought possible. And try as he might, is this something that devil-may-care Constantine can walk away from?

Don't miss out on the start of an intense, mind-bending new era for John Constantine in John Constantine, Hellblazer Vol. 22. Collects Hellblazer #250-260 and Hellblazer Special: Chas--The Knowledge #1-5.
