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

Captain Reamer stuck his head out of his office when he spotted the detectives walking past. "Hey, Gerard, Kensington." He motioned for them to come to his office. "Give me an update on your case," he said.


"We're in the process of trying to find Morton to question him. From all accounts, he was living with a woman by the name of Velma Vincent who works at the Arco Corporation. After meeting with the HR person over there, we found out Vincent's been out of the office, but they didn't offer any information about why or how long. The woman lives in the Morningside Heights District handled by Mike Guardino," Gerard said.


"Yeah, for a long time. He's on our list for this morning." Gerard keyed in the phone number and put the phone on speaker. "He's one of the few detectives who plays well with others." He held up his hand when Guardino answered, "Yeah, Guardino, Gerard and Kensington here."
