FBI Special Agent Tim Sheehan is a fairly nondescript fellow who blends into a crowd pretty easily in off-the-rack dark suits. He tends to dress and think conservatively--Mom, the flag and apple pie, baseball and Hollywood movies. At 52, he's in pretty good shape and still has most of his dark brown hair, now streaked with gray.

His voice is low with some gravel in it (due to his chain smoking) and he still has a bit of Baltimore in his diction. A grin is as close as he usually gets to a laugh. He is well-educated (like most agents) but doesn't show it off.

Tim grew up Catholic in Baltimore MD, attending Loyola University as an undergrad and getting a JD at University of Baltimore. He worked in city government for a couple years before joining the FBI He got married in college but was divorced before his daughter Maria was in high school. He doesn't seem to date much, if at all.

He already has well over the twenty years required for retirement but doesn't intend to go before the mandatory age of 57. He follows the Orioles in baseball season (though he currently lives in Des Moines) and follows other sports casually. He enjoys getting out on a lake for fly fishing when he gets the chance.
