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

Kensington-Gerard Detective Series

Zach's body tensed, as he readied himself to face his father. He inhaled slowly, coaxing the knot in the pit of his stomach to ease up. Out of the corner of his eye, Zach noticed his father huddled with his three associates. When the conversation concluded, one of the associates stood and buttoned his suit jacket, walking around the front of the table.


A sense of relief washed over Zach, like air releasing from a balloon knowing someone other than his father was going to question him. It wasn't as though he was afraid of his father...Zach wanted to make his father eat the very words that he'd repeatedly replayed in his mind every time he thought of him. The associate, a young man probably in his early thirties, paused in front of Alan and leaned toward the senior attorney, who drew him into a discussion. When the debate ended, the young attorney stood erect, his face seared into a disparaging expression, turned, and went back to his seat. Curious, Zach watched with interest.
