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

These triads Lily frequently pulls is my wife's fault," he pointed in her direction, "for spoiling the hell out of her. So much so, that when she doesn't get her way, she figures she'll make us pay for refusing her," he said sharply. "And, let me tell you that crap gets old, real fast. She knew today was an important day for our business."


Jessie intervened. "Don't say anything you'll regret later, Mr. Sloper. You're upset right now, and you don't mean what you're saying. Trust me; it's your nerves. How about I get you some ice water?"
