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

Ten minutes later, Jessie and Kevin returned to her office. 


"Okay, let's pick it up where we left off. Do you know of anyone who would want to hurt her?"


Kevin's face flushed with anger. "You mean, besides the fucking junkies, molesters and killers, she put away? I knew this goddamn job was going to kill her." 


"Please stop," Jessie said in a low voice. "I didn't say that, Kevin."


Jessie knew she wasn't going to convince him otherwise, so she changed the questions. "Did anyone besides you and Maureen have a key to your apartment?"


"No, no one...not even the cleaning woman."


"Then how did she get in to clean?" Even though she knew the answer based on Nancy Miller's response, she wanted his confirmation.


"Maureen let her in on the mornings unless she had to leave earlier than usual, then she'd ask the manager of security to let her inside."
