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

Jessie called out to Zach, who was out of sight. "Hey, Zach. Come see this kitchen." She heard him barrel down the stairs and waited for him by the door, still holding her nose when he finally entered. 


"One of the investigators just found blood on the bedroom carpet," he blurted out before she'd had a chance to point out the mess in the kitchen.


"A drop or two, and no signs of an attempted clean up."


"Listen, if Sawyer is responsible for his wife's disappearance, would he have been foolish enough to leave so many pieces of evidence around hoping we'd find them?" She pointed to what she'd found. "This is even worse than what the Milligan's described. Shriveled pieces of fruit with cereal strewn over the counter that spilled down onto the lower cabinets now covered with caked-on milk." She covered her nose and mouth with her hand. "Would he?" she asked.
