Story
There's a body beneath the skip bins. Fae on the forklift. A vampire in the manager's office. And there's definitely something skeevy going on in the locker rooms. Hi. I'm Pet. Well, not exactly Pet. I am a pet. I was meant to stay out of it, but somebody's gotta do something when humans are being killed by Behindkind creatures.

I'm not supposed to push through the boundaries of reality without supervision. I'm definitely not meant to drag a cop Between with me. But stuff happens, you know? Hi. I'm Pet. Well, not Pet, exactly. I am a pet. Nothing too hard; I just cook and clean for the Behindkind who took over my house. Easy. But now one of my owners has gone missing. He's fae, so it shouldn't worry me, but if there's something out there that can kidnap fae, I don't wanna meet it. Good thing I've got another two owners and a spare cop up my sleeve....

Something or someone is stalking and killing high-level fae around Hobart-tearing out hearts and leaving a trail of bloody bodies behind. Fae don't like it when they're the ones getting killed, so of course they came to hire my owners. Owners, you ask? Hi. I'm Pet. No, that's not my name. I am a pet. My owners? They're fae. Well, two fae and one stroppy vampire. Welcome to the world Between.

After the rumor that sweeps around the kingdom, promising that any woman breaking the "curse" will be eligible to marry the prince, there is no shortage of willing volunteers. Unfortunately, there is also no shortage of bodies piling up.

Story
Jacky Leon is a member of the strongest werecat family alive; a family that commands the loyalty of every werecat that walks the face of the earth. Her family is the definition of power, and none have dared challenge that for millennia. It’s not a legacy she’s comfortable with, but it’s the one she’s been given, and Jacky is resolved to do her best with her new responsibilities. When rogue werecats begin to test Jacky’s territory, paranoia mounts as questions go unanswered and lives are potentially at stake.

I thought I understood power. My parents taught me that magic attracts equal danger, and everything I've seen since becoming a demon contractor confirms it. I've witnessed how power twists and corrupts - and I've tasted power no human should wield. I thought I knew greed. Ambition and avarice drove my family into hiding. My parents died for someone else's greed. I've never hunted anything in my life, but now I'm hunting their killer - with my demon's help. I thought I'd seen evil. But with each step closer to my parents' murderer, I'm uncovering a different sort of evil.

I’m one placement away from becoming a fully fledged London detective. It’s bad enough that my last assignment before I qualify is with Supernatural Squad. But that’s nothing compared to what happens next. Brutally murdered by an unknown assailant, I wake up 12 hours later in the morgue - and I’m very much alive. I don’t know how or why it happened. I don’t know who killed me. All I know is that they might try again.

Jacky Leon got away with it. She defended a little human girl, made a few unlikely acquaintances, and survived to tell the tale. Now she’s the only werecat in the supernatural community who can say a small family of werewolves lives in her borders. That isn’t a good thing, though. As news of her heritage and relation to Hasan becomes more well known, Jacky finds herself in the spotlight, slammed with guilt over recent werecat problems and her duty as a daughter of Hasan.

They say family always sticks together, but when you're your dad's only lifeline and the whole world - humans, dragons, and gods - wants you dead, "family bonding" takes on a whole new meaning. My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I'm in way over my head. I thought getting rid of my dad's bad luck curse would put things back to normal. Instead, I'm stuck playing caretaker to the Great Dragon of Korea. That wouldn’t be so bad if he wasn't such a jerk, or if every dragon on the planet wasn't out to kill him, or if he was my only problem.

When I arrived at my uncle's house, I expected my relatives to be like me - outcast sorcerers who don't practice magic. I was right about the sorcery, but wrong about everything else. Rule two: Don't listen to the demon. My uncle chose a far deadlier power. He calls creatures of darkness into our world, binds them into service contracts, and sells them to the highest bidder. And I'm supposed to act like I don't know how illegal and dangerous it is. Rule three: Don't talk to the demon. All I had to do was keep my nose out of it.

Publisher's Summary
When you get up in the morning, the last thing you expect to see is a murdered guy hanging outside your window. Things like that tend to draw the attention of the local police, and when you're squatting in your parents' old house until you can afford to buy it, another thing you can't afford is the attention of the cops.
Oh yeah. Hi. My name is Pet. It's not my real name, but it's the only one you're getting. Things like names are important these days.
And it's not so much that I'm Pet. I am a pet. A human pet: I belong to the two Behindkind fae and the pouty vampire who just moved into my house.
It's not weird, I promise - well, it is weird, yeah. But it's not weird weird, you know?

Excellent
I've read this book a few times, but I found this narrator to have an excellent command of the different characters involved in the story. I live Pet, Jin-Yeong, Zero and Athelas with their various personalities and foibles, and Detective Tuatu is fun. Love this series.

An otherworldly detective story.
Between jobs is the first book in a mystery series about those who investigate when the the Fae commit crimes in the human world. I really enjoyed this story, told from the view point of the Fae's human pet. This is one of those surreal stories where nothing is as it seems and the bizarre can intrude on the normal at a moment's notice. Pet navigates it well and adapts to the weirdness pretty easily. The narrator, Zehra, reads this first person narrative, perfectly nailing the voice of the teenage Pet. I look forward to the next installment of this series.

So worth a listen!
I love love love this series! It’s not a predictable series at all! W.R. Gingell is my new favorite author and Zehra Naqvi did this so well I felt like I was right there with Pet the entire time! This is for anyone who loves a good fantasy, murder mystery, story. It’s for anyone who doesn’t want the same ole plot line and doesn’t want some bodice ripper to listen to. It’s good quality make you say hhhmmmm reading/listening.

Fantastic story & world building
Fantastic urban fantasy with rich world building that hooks the reader almost immediately. Only complaint is the poorly rendered Korean, both grammatically and the accent of the narrator. Otherwise the 4 main characters are wonderful and I look forward to tue reat of the series.

my favorite new author!
Gingel has become my new favorite author this past year, with this series in specific being a particular gem. lol, I liked these books so much I bought the audio versions of them as well! And I really enjoy the narrator too. In a collection of books, I generally lose interest in a story around the 4th or 5th book, but I still can't wait for the next installment of Pet's adventures! There's a bit of gore, interesting plot and fascinating characters that end up feeling like family. I don't write reviews normally, but I want to put my opinion out there and say, if you're on the fence about them, give these books a try!

One of my favorite series of all times.
I am generally a Mystery rather than a Fantasy buff, but I don’t mind a bit of woo-woo in my world. This series is just amazing and wonderful and I totally love it. A bit dark now and then without being unrelentlessly dark, a bit gruesome now and then without being over the top, with plenty of mysterious threads dangling and taunting and making it impossible not to keep listening. Each character is beautifully formed and fleshed out, and the protagonist - Pet - is just one of my favorite characters of all time. Zehra Jane Navqi is amazing and brilliant, bringing each character their own distinct voice and personality - truly a terrific match of author and narrator. Not ashamed to say that in the month since I bought the current 4 books on offer in the series I have listened to them 3 times. Can’t say that I’ve ever done that with a series before.

Between is better with your own psychos
I adored this book when I read it previously, the world is vivid and fascinating and the characters are interesting and unique. My favorite thing is the quirky personality and perspective provided by Pet. The narrator did a wonderful job creating a voice for Pet and bringing the story to life. I am excited to listen to the rest of the series and be reminded just how good they really are!

Excellent!
The story is excellent, and I've listened to it a couple of times now I enjoy it so much. I really like the dynamic between all the characters, and how much personality the protagonist has. Pet also doesnt put herself in stupid situations intentionally when she knows she can't fight (thank goodness as thats one of my pet peeves). The world is really interesting, and feels like there's so much depth to it that you only scrape across the top. The voice took a little bit getting used to. Im Australian, and even to me the twangs and speech patterns in the accent were a bit jarring at first, but in essence it suits the overall style and I would be disappointed if it wasn't read in this way. Read it. Its excellent!

Excellent, although sooo ocka
Funny and frivolous, this book was a delight. Pet is an unusual character, having raised her herself (after being home-schooled previously) since she was thirteen. Her outlook on life seems bizarrely accepting of the weird happenings that become her life, but again, she is only 17, no family or friends and no media influences (ever) other than Google at the library - you can’t expect her to behave like a normal teenager. When two fae and a vampire move into her house/life and offer her dream-come true, for the measly exchange of becoming their temporary pet (nothing perverted, think of her as their cat, who can conveniently cook). The males are varied and I particularly enjoyed the banter between the vampire, who refuses to speak English, and Pet, who cannot understand Korean. For those of you not Australian (not your fault, blame your parents), the colloquialisms may be odd, and as you listen to the Audible version, it is performed excellently, although the accent used for Pet is broad enough to take some adjustment (and that is from a local!). Having said that, the narrator does a wonderful job of sounding natural for younger girl. There are no annoying speech rhythms, pauses or over-acting. I loved this and have already bought the next book, written and Audible versions. When will the rest go Audible, please?
