An object moving through the sky then disappearing

The object in the sky moved laterally, with no exhaust, and was smaller than an airplane. It was maybe one to two miles away from us. As we observed it in the sky it turned at an angle and seemed to reflect the Setting Sun and there was a flash of light on the side of the object. Immediately after that flash of light the object disappeared. There were no clouds that it would have disappeared behind, nor any other objects. It was a clear sky and we had a clear view of the object.
