Sheep sleuths go undercover,
By
This review is from: Three Bags Full (Hardcover)
Highly original drama set on Irish cliffs - when George the shepherd is found dead then his flock get busy looking for clues as to what happened. Led by Miss Maple there's a great cast of sheep. The drama reaches a peak at the Glennkill Sheep of the Year Contest. It's entertaining, well written and never too far fetched to stretch the reader's willingness to believe what's happening. I'll never see sheep the same way again.

Absolutely Original,
By
This review is from: Three Bags Full (Paperback)
I'm fortunate in having an older sister who buys me interesting and off the wall crime books for Christmas and Birthdays. This is certainly the most original I've ever read. It begins almost as a children's story - it is told from the point of view of the human victims flock of sheep-; but before long very adult threads are gently woven in. The sheep are, necessarily, clever, but the anthropomorphism works and they provide a diverting view of how people work. The writing is good and the outcome not obvious. I thoroughly enjoyed this book to the extent of, for the first time, writing a review. Connor:-)

not your average crime solving novel!,
By
This review is from: Three Bags Full (Paperback)
swann has a unique writing style that allows you to move beyond the seemingly impossible idea that sheep can in fact be intelligent and solve murders and really creates a bond between the characters and you as a reader. It's a lighthearted murder mystery for all those who love sheep, cannot stomach the gore of other crime books or are just looking for something different. I would totally recommend this book to all!!
