Ken Dornstein's The Boy Who Fell Out Of The Sky is the story of the author's quest to understand his brother's life, in the context of his untimely death at the hands of terrorists. His older brother David was killed in the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland on December 21, 1988, and the author has lived under the pall of these events ever since.

Ken Dornstein always looked up to his older brother David. David was handsome, popular and successful with women. He was talented, and had dreams of writing the great American novel — dreams his little brother never doubted would come true. Then, at age 25, David died in the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie in Scotland. This memoir begins as the story of Ken’s investigation into David’s death. But as his obsessive enquiries go on, it becomes the story of David’s life, what he meant to Ken — and who he really was. As it moves towards its devastating finale, Ken’s account raises the question: how well do we know the people we love?
