When a shepherd who read murder mysteries aloud to his sheep is found poisoned outside his trailer, in a world where the flock believe death happens only in books and that they turn into clouds at the end, a crime-obsessed ewe, a ram who forgets nothing and an outcast winter lamb must work out which villager did it, before the only policeman for miles arrests the wrong man.
