Mirror Mirror Murder
(2026)(The first book in the Lighthouse Bay Antique Bookstore Mystery series)
A novel by Eva Onyx
Her great-aunt died and left her the bookstore. The trouble is, she never really left.
Shelly Walker spent twelve years as a court reporter, taking down every word said in the room. Now her marriage is over, and she’s starting again above her late great-aunt’s antique bookstore in the seaside town of Lighthouse Bay. All she wants is a quiet life, a few sales, and some peace with Hermione, the fluffy white cat who came with the shop.
She gets three quiet weeks.
Then a crate arrives holding a silver-framed mirror from a man Shelly has never met. His note promises an explanation, but by the time she reaches his house on Cliff Road, he’s dead. Back at the shop, Hermione starts talking, but only to Shelly. The cat knows far too much about the family, has opinions about everything Shelly does, and will only eat fresh flounder.
Soon strangers are offering ridiculous money for the mirror, the rich neighbor two doors down wants Shelly’s building, and the handsome café owner next door already knows her coffee order. Someone wanted that mirror badly enough to kill for it.
Shelly never forgets a word anyone says. Now she has to work out which of them is lying before the police decide it was her.
A clean, funny paranormal cozy for readers who love talking cats, bookshop mysteries, and seaside small towns where everybody has a secret.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
