YASID: non-magical detective that runs–a magic shop ?

"Alex Verus series, Benedict Jacka

Atticus O'Sullivan series, Kevin Hearne

magic shops with real magical proprietors

Don't remember the name, but there's also non-magical detective that
runs–a magic shop.

Must have been a good writer's workshop somewhere about 2010: Magic
shopkeepers, backstory and character development."

Certainly not Harry Dresden, right ?

One of Lawrence Watt-Evans' Ethshar books, "The Spriggan Mirror", has a
magic supply shop run by a non-magician (but all his sisters are), and
he does a good job of detection in the story.
