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 pushed back in her seat when her phone pinged alerting her she had a message. Having served Morton's phone carrier with a warrant, any messages he sent out would appear on her phone. 


"Hey, Morton just texted his mother telling her he's on his way and should be there within the week."


"Excellent! We need to go talk to the captain and have him approve our trip to Connecticut," Gerard said.


Ignoring what he was saying, Jess cleared her throat. "You know, it's been a few days and Jennifer still hasn't been found."


"Jess," he looked at her sympathetically, "I think you need to accept that she's probably dead by now. Based on what we know about her, she wouldn't have left before getting her inheritance. And I know I don't have to tell you Missing Persons is doing the best they can."


"I know. I'm still going to call Charlene to see how she's doing," she said in rapid-fire succession. "Bud took over her case...maybe I should call him to see what's going on."
