«The Murder Farm» is a mystery novel by Andrea Maria Schenkel, published by Quercus in paperback, in English.
In a German village after the Second World War, a family is found murdered with pickaxe blows. Neither the police nor the journalists find the culprit, and the narrator leaves the village without knowing the truth; only the reader has the pieces to reach the conclusion. The author combines accounts from the neighbours, narrative fragments and passages of devotion.
Winner of the Deutscher Krimi Preis, the Friedrich-Glauser-Preis and the Martin Beck Award. Translated into English by Anthea Bell.
For readers of suspense who appreciate fragmentary structures and intersecting testimonies of an unsolved investigation.
Andrea Maria Schenkel is a German writer. She received the Corine Literature Prize (2007).
