The Mayor of Lexington Avenue » (Reprint)

James Sheehan has been a trial lawyer in Tampa/St.Petersburg, Florida for twenty-eight years. The Mayor of Lexington Avenue is his first novel.

More than a typical legal thriller, The Mayor of Lexington Avenue tells a story of enduring friendships, love and loss, promises kept, and loyalties fulfilled, all against a backdrop that sweeps from the streets of New York City to the bayous and barrios

The New York Times - Marilyn Stasio

Sheehan, a trial lawyer in Tampa, writes with bleak clarity when he's sharing the dirty tricks of his trade in the harrowing trial scenes, but there's a touch of the poet in his voice when he turns to Rudy and Bass Creek and the kind of innocence that gets crushed in the infernal coils of the law.
