With a serial killer on the loose, the individual being possessed as a consequence of a demonic summoning taking place, the whole city was in panic. As this was out of the capability of the police, the problem was getting out of hand.
That is why, despite the rough falling out caused by your failed romance, you contact Constantine, in hopes of him helping you with this case.
