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

Another night of tossing and turning, and no solid proof that the mayor or Avery Johnson were involved in Maureen's murder, Jessie gave up and slipped out of bed. Trying not to wake Zach, she tiptoed to the door and tried to open it praying it wouldn't creak.


"And just where do you think you're going?" he asked sitting upright.


Jessie sighed. "I'm sorry. I tried not to wake you, but I've been tossing and turning all night desperately trying to fall asleep, but this nagging feeling that we've missed something at the crime scene is making me crazy. I have to check for myself."


Zach threw his legs over the side of the bed. "Good, I'm coming with you."


Jessie loved the idea of him tagging along but she knew he couldn't. "You can't."


"Uh, have you forgotten I'm no longer employed by the NYPD?"


Relieved, Jessie grinned. "Then get dressed, baby. We've got work to do."
