The Kensington-Gerard Detective series follows the careers of NYPD Homicide Detectives Jessie Kensington and her partner Zachary Gerard as they fight crime in the city that never sleeps. Jessie is a good detective, but is damaged with commitment issues that have a fearsome grip on her present. Gerard’s been around law all his life as seen through the eyes of his father, a hotshot attorney with a reputation for racking up not guilty verdicts on his son’s cases. That only adds to their already tenuous relationship.
Greed, betrayal, sexual tension, threats on their lives, abductions, and missing witnesses makes for an ongoing parade of cases that seem unsolvable, but the fascination of seeing the evidence mount, regardless of setbacks, the pieces of the puzzle always seem to fit into a nice neat little package. In the end, persistence on Zach’s part opens Jessie’s mind to the fullness of a life her heritage has denied her. THE KENSINGTON-GERARD DETECTIVE SERIES IS CREATED BY K. T. ROBERTS

Lieutenant Harwell gestured Zach into the viewing room. "I just wanted to let you know that Paige and Santori are staked out by the chop shop so we can catch this Sonny guy the next time he checks in on his assets. I guess we're going to have to provide around-the-clock surveillance to catch the bastard, or do you think Tony's smart enough to set up the surveillance equipment for us?"


"Are you kidding?" Zach snorted. "We're lucky if the guy knows his name." He laughed. "No Lieutenant, he's not bright enough to pull that off."


"Hell, my twelve-year-old kid knows how to operate the equipment. Okay," Harwell shrugged. "Just thought I'd ask. Where'd you find him?"


"He was hanging out with his buddies at Cutter's Bar. When he saw us, he took off like a shot. We chased him down, and he's been jumpy ever since...he's afraid someone saw him."


"Did he say anything about the Sonny guy or Lenny?"
