A witty philosophical murder mystery unfolds as a flock of sheep embarks on a quest to uncover the killer of their beloved shepherd, George, found dead on a hillside in the Irish village of Glennkill. George, who nurtured the sheep with nightly readings, has equipped them with a surprising understanding of human nature. Led by the astute Miss Maple, the investigation team includes Othello, the rebellious black ram; Mopple the Whale, a gluttonous merino with a perfect memory; and Zora, a thoughtful ewe drawn to the depths of existence. Together, they engage in spirited discussions about the crime while launching reconnaissance missions into the village, where they encounter a cast of intriguing suspects: Ham, the menacing butcher; Rebecca, a mysterious newcomer with ulterior motives; Gabriel, the dubious shepherd of an unusual flock; and Father Will, a suspicious priest. As they delve deeper into the mystery, the sheep grapple with their own human-like challenges of guilt, misdeeds, and unrequited love. This charming tale has captivated readers worldwide, likened to Agatha Christie reimagining a classic, offering a delightful introduction to a unique breed of detectives.

Grundsätzlich nicht schlecht. Es fällt mir allerdings schwer in die Geschichte einzusteigen. Es fehlt mir dieses "ich will wissen wie es weiter geht" verlangen.
