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

Jessie entered the evidence room and confirmed the numbers on the corner of the storage units, comparing them against the sheet of paper she held in her hand. Halfway down the aisle, she stopped when she found the box. Justin's name appeared in large bold letters across the bottom. A familiar ache pinched her heart. The evidence room was set up like a library with long mahogany tables and chairs. Jess pulled the box off the shelf and carried it to one of the empty tables. A few other detectives acknowledged her presence with a nod and returned to rummaging through their evidence boxes. Two of the detectives that she'd seen Bud talking to a few times were sequestered in the corner with a cart of boxes piled on top of one another.
