Very very niche, set in a fairytale world (Wyld Enchantment Woods) MIRROR, MIRROR WHO'S THE KILLER? is a non-romantic, paranormal, cozy mystery for adults with talking cats and quirky characters. Needless to say - you're going to have to be the sort of reader that likes this sort of thing for it even to get close to working for you.
Basically the story revolves around a suspended Fairy Godmother, living in a frozen kingdom where magic is strictly forbidden. There's a henchman (isn't there always) with a stolen magic mirror in his pocket (okay so that's maybe not so common), and an arrow lodged in his heart (again - not so common). There's a talking tomcat with a propensity for snitching to the wicked Queen (there's a wicked Queen, of course there's a wicked Queen!) and some really dodgy, dangerous pumpkins.
Needless to say, slapstick comedy is the only thing that would have worked with this lot, even though some aspects of that had my eye-roll reflex doing a little bit of work. There's a plot with some twists and turns that answers nearly all the questions, and a lead in to further outings in the series.
