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 scribbled her name on the sign-in sheet and walked into the records room. Walking down the aisle, she removed the Cavanaugh evidence box from the shelf and brought it to a vacant table centered in the middle of the room. Lifting the lid, she removed the written report when her cell phone rang.


"What are you doing, sunshine?" Zach asked.


"I thought we might get together later tonight for a naked party."


"Did you now?" she laughed. "I'm probably going to be here for the next couple of hours, so tonight might not be a good idea. How's tomorrow looking?"


"Hell, I don't know. I needed to be with you, that's all." She liked the sounds of knowing he needed her. "Aren't you finished for the day?"


"Yes, but as I told you, I'm trying to help Abby. I'm retracing the legwork of those two detectives."


"Two? You only told me about this Barney guy. Who's the other detective?"
