Holmwood is a typical, quiet village in the English countryside, but the woodland that borders it does not enjoy the same fame. For years, or perhaps centuries, the night of All Saints has recorded, in those parts, mysterious disappearances of travellers. Even Luna Walters' parents have vanished into the fog that has been rising since time immemorial on that magical night in the Holmwood forest... And the courageous young woman has no choice but to return to that sinister place, not without first resorting, however, to the good offices of a certain Dylan Dog... Once upon a time, Al Jone was famous. After all, those who are struck by lightning, in most cases, simply remain charred, but not him: he has transformed into a sort of living accumulator, a scientific curiosity, an amusement park hero. Now Al Jone has begun to pick up, among the many forms of energy, also the voices of the dead... and others, from the sidereal depths, which are calling him. He must go to the chosen place for the appointment, but he is not the only one who has received the "call"... A group of those defeated by life, a marginal humanity, sets off towards their own destination, and Dylan Dog marches alongside them, to protect them from those who do not want the Exodus to take place...

At one time, Al Jone was famous. After all, those who are struck by lightning, in most cases, simply remain charred, but not him: he has transformed into a sort of living accumulator, a scientific curiosity, an amusement park hero. Now Al Jone has begun to pick up, among the many forms of energy, also the voices of the dead... and others, from the sidereal depths, which are calling him. He must go to the chosen place for the appointment, but he is not the only one who has received the "call"... A group of those defeated by life, a marginal humanity, sets off towards the same destination as them, and Dylan Dog marches alongside them, to protect them from those who do not want the Exodus to take place... The billionaire William Woods, the bankruptcy trustee Stella Jones, the painter Kean... all persecuted by cosmic misfortune as soon as they get their hands on the crystal Rainbow. But if the stone is so lethal, why are droves of Hindus looking for it? And who does the cynical detective Nash work for, also in charge of recovering the mysterious object? Dylan, of course, has the task of shedding light on the many "whys" of what seems like a vintage noir... It's not nice to tell lies, and Judith knows this. But she can't help it, even as a child she was never able to stop lying, despite the fear that Chainjaw, the demon who feeds on lies, could come one night to steal her soul. Childhood fantasies? It's not said. Judith is now grown up and, although she is truly in love with Dylan, she still can't help but lie to him too. The thing is, Chainjaw is back… And Judith's lies are starting to become real!
