White streak with firey tail traveled horizonally from western horizon to eastern horizon in 10 seconds

A white streak(comet appearance)appeared from the western horizon and traveled straight across the sky to the eastern horizon in about 8-10 seconds. I have seen comets and they just appear and burn out, this was no comet or falling star. I was looking due south and the object was a streak of bright white leaving a red trail of what appeared to be fire. It was silent as it went whizzing overhead and out of sight.
