Andrea Maria Schenkel: The Murder Farm. €12,20
Winner of Deutscher Krimi-Preis, Kategorie National 2007, Friedrich-Glauser-Krimipreis 2007 für das beste Debüt und dem Corine - Internationaler Buchpreis, Kategorie Weltbild Leserpreis 2007, Schwedischer Krimipreis, Martin Beck Award 2008.
An entire family is dead - a man, his wife, their daughter, her two children and their new maid - brutally murdered witha pickaxe at their remote home, now known as "The Murder Farm".
The papers are full of stories and rumours, but the police have no firm leads and seemingly no sense of how they might set about finding the killer. Then a former resident of the village returns home to see if they can succeed where outsiders have failed.
Compared it Truman Capote's "In Cold Blood", Andrea Maria Schenkel's debut is an unforgettable detective story in which neither police, journalists nor the narrator can find the solution; the reader alone reaches the shattering conclusion.
