Dark boomerang craft, no lights, gliding across O'Fallon Mo. skies

Blended perfectly in the nights sky, miracle I noticed it. The movement caught my eye. Hard to estimate size, since I would first have to estimate the altitude....but I'd say it was lower then air plane I've ever seen fly. Maybe a few hundred feet. The angle I saw was side to belly of the craft. I viewed it for about 10-15 seconds before I lost sight of it due to trees/ line of sight. It looked like it had a wing span, likely V shaped. No lights what so ever. It looked dark grey in color (very very clear night here in St. Louis tonight). No sound. It was graceful...it glided utterly silently in the night.

This will wound even crazier, but it left behind a sort of very subtle blurry end trail as went by. The trail it left looked sort of distorted, wavy....like the street on a hot hot summer day. I don't know who to report this to. Should I call the police? It's been almost 2 hours now, and I haven't heard anything about it on the radio, news or internet. It was so discreet that I now find myself thinking these things could be out here every night, and no one might see them unless they got lucky like I did. Creepy. Does this sound like a military operation/practice? Maybe a surveillance drone or something?
