Not all mysteries involve murder, but that doesn’t make them any less baffling.
Reading, England 1888
When Byron Constantine receives a cryptic note from Chief Inspector Thatcher, he expects another high-stakes case in London’s underbelly. Instead, he’s sent to Reading, England, to investigate something far more peculiar—thousands of sheep have simultaneously escaped their paddocks, leaving chaos in their wake.
Assigned by the skeptical new Commissioner, Cassius Parry, Byron teams up with Officer Frederick Wensley, to solve this rural riddle. But as the two uncover a series of bizarre clues and endure a cascade of sheep-related mishaps, they begin to suspect that this strange event might be part of a much larger, more sinister plot.
In a tale that blends humor with mystery, Byron must prove his deductive skills aren’t just for show—and that even the most seemingly trivial cases can lead to unexpected discoveries.
This eight chapter novella takes place between Flashes of Memory (Book 2) and There Comes a Midnight Hour (Book 3). As such, it has spoilers for previous books.
Genre: Cozy Mystery
