«Was It Murder?» is a mystery novel by James Hilton, published by HarperCollins in paperback, in English.
At an English boarding school, two brothers die in two separate and strange accidents during the same school year. An amateur detective and a Scotland Yard inspector investigate separately whether it is a coincidence or a double crime, with the solution withheld until the end.
Originally published in 1931 as «Murder at School», the 1980 edition is James Hilton's only foray into the detective genre.
For those who enjoy classic British suspense and Golden Age detective novels.
