Three Bags Full (A Sheep Detective Story) by Leonie Swann

Soon to be a major motion picture starring Hugh Jackman and Emma Thompson, this funny and ewe-nique mystery starring a flock of sheep is a must-read, international bestseller.

On a hillside near the quaint Irish village of Glennkill, the flock gathers around the dead body of their shepherd, George, who lies pinned to the ground with a spade. George cared deeply for the sheep, reading to them daily, and as a result they are far smarter than your average flock.

Led by Miss Maple, the sharpest sheep in Glennkill (and possibly the world), they set out to find George’s killer. With an assortment of woolly investigators on the case, there are furtive missions into the village and a collection of two-legged suspects to chew over.

Dazzingly original, Three Bags Full introduces a band of detectives who are a breed apart.
