Synopsis
Tom Hazard looks like a normal history teacher, but he's actually 408 years old. He has a rare condition that makes him age incredibly slowly, forcing him to constantly change his identity to survive. Having learned the hard way that love leads to pain, Tom avoids close relationships. But when he takes a job in a quiet English town, he finds himself drawn to the people around him, risking the secret he's guarded for centuries.
