SILENT SKIES Volume I
a Political thriller by Sam Thorne

What really happened on Flight 8414?

What would come to light in a meticulous investigation – beyond the official explanations?

Was it a technical or a political failure that led to the disaster?

Was it a calculation - or was it a deliberate act?

SILENT SKIES is a fast-paced, investigative Thriller about the ultimate price of a cover-up

150 human lives

When a German airline »Germanair« plane crashes in the French Alps, 150 people die.

Investigators and the media quickly present a seemingly clear explanation: the co-pilot deliberately crashed the plane.

For Sophie Thalberg, a Berlin-based journalist – and the co-pilot's former partner – this picture doesn't make sense. The more she digs, the clearer it becomes: her ex-boyfriend wasn't the problem, but a system that needs scapegoats.

Alongside Till Gorny, a security consultant with a military background, she follows the trail behind the official narrative: missing data, manipulated evidence, political interests, orchestrated lies.

What they discover goes far beyond the crash – deep into a system that shapes and destroys truth as it serves them.

SILENT SKIES is a literary political thriller about love and loss, about truth and lies – and about how much courage it takes when the whole world believes a story that isn't true.

About the book:

„Sam Thorne hat with SILENT SKIES created a novel that masterfully combines literary depth and gripping suspense.
The starting point is the crash of a passenger plane, but at its heart is the question of how truth emerges – and how it disappears under political, legal, and media interests. Within hours, a culprit is identified. Other possible causes and connections are not even considered further. This, in a powerful web of manipulation and cover-up, becomes a momentous „Confirmation Bias“
SILENT SKIES is a literary political thriller of international calibre: 
atmospherically dense, excitingly told, and thought-provoking at the same time – a book that gets under your skin and stays with the reader for a long time.“
