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

"Is the State ready to call its first witness?" Judge Cooper asked.


"Yes, Your Honor," Samantha announced. "The People call Detective Zachary Gerard."


Zach's stomach tightened, knowing he would be testifying in front of his father. 


The court clerk approached. "Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help you, God?"


"State your full name and occupation for the record."


"Zachary Alan Gerard, detective first-class, 21st Precinct, NYPD."


"You have the same last name as the defendant's attorney," the District Attorney announced. "Is Alan Gerard any relation to you?"


Samantha walked to the center of the room and stood before Zach. "Detective, have you discussed this case with your father?"


She smiled and walked away, then turned to speak to Zach. 


 "Detective, were you the arresting officer of the defendant, Patrick Sawyer?"


"My partner and I were the arresting officers."
