Urban fantasy set in 1963 Los Angeles. Sherry is a young woman working at her dad's diner. One day she finds a homeless looking old man standing in front of the local prison. According to the guards, he's been let out after completing a 100 year sentence which would make him approximately 120 years old. She takes him to the diner for food and tries to give him a haircut and shave. She's shocked to find that the "old man" has not aged at all for a hundred years!
