A terrifying miscarriage of justice in small-town Florida.
A place where favours are routinely traded at the expense of truth.
A place where police corruption has become an art form.

Jack Tobin is a trial lawyer with a searing-hot reputation in Miami, far removed from his scrappy youth on the streets of New York. But when a young man, Rudy, is railroaded into a murder conviction in the tiny Florida backwater of Bass Creek, Tobin resolves to repay a debt to his best friend, the boy who once dubbed him the Mayor of Lexington Avenue'.

Heartbreak, tragedy, courtroom drama and the hope of redemption play out in this utterly page-turning, thought-provoking legal thriller.

'If you like crime novels, legal thrillers and courtroom dramas, you'll love The Mayor of Lexington Avenue, which has all three, plus some nostalgic New York City flashbacks as an added bonus ... This is a debut novel, but it reads like it was written by a master of the genre.'
Nelson DeMille
