Matt's holiday dream of playing soccer and computer games is shattered. Dad has sent him to Uncle Zavier's Australian sheep farm for 'some real-life experience'. The place is far away from what his mother calls civilization and supposedly just fit for bush pigs. Luckily, Matt has packed his soccer balls and a box full of technology, thinking he is fully prepared. But there is more to Uncle Zavier's farm than meets the eye. Flies, dust, and odd people are only the beginning of it. Apparently, some of the neighbourhood's sheep have vanished mysteriously. Who is the thief? Matt has his suspicions. Together with his new friends Jacko, Dotto, Sophie, and Slimy he forms the Murrowong Detective Club to solve the mystery of the missing sheep. Will their plans work? Will they be able to stop the gangsters from taking Uncle Zavier's sheep too or will it all end up in disaster?
