The Murder Farm by Andrea Maria Schenkel
The Murder Farm is a very short novel about a horrendous crime, the story allowed to unfold in short chapters which each present a (sometimes overlapping) sliver of background. The book is set in a small German community in the 1950s. The Danners have an out-of-the-way farm, and it is there that the whole family is slaughtered: the father and mother, daughter, two young grandchildren, and a maidservant.
