Robin Yocum Synopsis: A Brilliant Death is a standalone novel by Robin Yocum. Amanda Baron died in a boating accident on the Ohio River in 1953. Or, so it seems. While it was widely accepted that she had died when a coal barge rammed the pleasure boat she was sharing with her lover, her body was never located. Travis Baron was an infant when his mother disappeared. After the accident and the subsequent publicity, Travis’s father scoured the house of all evidence that Amanda Baron had ever lived, and her name was never to be uttered in his presence. Now in high school, Travis yearns to know more about his mother. With the help of his best friend, Mitch Malone, Travis begins to investigate the truth about the mother he doesn’t remember. The two boys find an unlikely ally: an alcoholic former detective who served time for falsifying evidence. Although his reputation is in tatters, the information the detective provides about the death of Amanda Baron is indisputable – and dangerous. Nearly two decades after her death, Travis and Mitch piece together a puzzle lost to the dark waters of the Ohio River. They know how Amanda Baron died, and why. Now what do they do with the information?
