In the shadowed ruins of a forgotten WWII airfield, the past refuses to stay buried and the dead demand justice.
Former RAF airman Simon Ashcroft thought reopening an abandoned German airbase as a flying school would be his fresh start. But when eerie apparitions haunt the runways and a spectral Luftwaffe pilot named Wilhelm von Falkenrath appears, Simon is thrust into a chilling web of secrets spanning decades.
As whispers of wartime atrocities executions, stolen legacies, and SS horrors in the infamous Building Thirteen surface, Simon's quest for truth ignites a deadly pursuit. Archives burn, bombs explode, and shadowy figures from Berlin's corridors of power emerge to silence him forever. With the help of a street-smart ally, Franzi, Simon races through a labyrinth of betrayal, from snow-swept Cold War memories to modern conspiracies that could rewrite history.
Blending pulse-pounding thriller action with supernatural suspense and richly detailed historical intrigue, Silver Wings of Guilt explores the blurred lines between memory and madness, duty and desire. Will Simon uncover the truth before the ghosts and the living claim him?
Perfect for fans of The Nightingale meets The Da Vinci Code, this debut novel by Peter Ashford will keep you turning pages long into the night. Dive into a story where every shadow hides a secret... and guilt has wings.
