Product Details

About the Book

The Skydivers is a thrilling short story from Chris Bohjalian, part of Alibis, a collection of stories about lies, truth, and deception — it's just a matter of what you can get away with, and each story can be read or listened to in one sitting. For two brothers, an inheritance triggers a dark chain of events in this tale of loyalty and revenge from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Flight Attendant.

Aspiring musician Pete Hamilton has nothing in common with his older brother, Leo, an aerospace engineer — until their late father leaves them the family farm, a sprawling dairy operation in Vermont. Pete wants to hold on to it; Leo wants to sell. The one thing the embattled brothers can agree on is a fitting send-off: skydiving over the fields to sprinkle their father's ashes, a grand gesture the old man would have loved. But when the plan goes terribly wrong mid-jump, only one unexpected eyewitness on the ground can see what's really going on — and it becomes clear that this "accident" may have been anything but.

Told with Bohjalian's signature tight plotting and sharp instinct for a twist, the story builds tension through sibling resentment, hidden motives, and a genuinely unsettling final reveal, delivering a compact, high-stakes thriller of family conflict pushed to its most extreme conclusion.
