Three Bags Full (Sheep Detective Story #1) by Leonie Swann, Anthea Bell (Translator)
German author Leonie Swann has recently been publishing the Agnes Sharpe crime novels, but her 2005 debut is finding new audiences with a big film adaptation. Three Bags Full follows a flock of sheep who must solve their human caretaker’s murder. And just in time for the film release, Soho Crime is publishing the sequel, Big Bad Wool. All puns intended, I assume.
I’m going to lead with the cast for the film’s adaptation, The Sheep Detectives, because it is stacked: Hugh Jackman, Emma Thompson, Regina Hall, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Nicholas Braun, Nicholas Galitzine, Molly Gordon, Hong Chau, Bryan Cranston, Chris O’Dowd, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, and Rhys Darby.
With mystery-loving shepherd George (Hugh Jackman) murdered, his flock of sheep decides the policeman is “hopeless,” and they must solve the murder.
