Robert Brighton, award-winning author of the Avenging Angel Detective Agency™ Mysteries and other immersive historical fiction, is an authority on the turbulent final years of the Gilded Age, a vibrant, exciting era that is all too often misunderstood as stuffy. In his novels, Brighton peels away the glittering surface of the turn of the last century—a time both utterly strange and strangely familiar—to reveal the passions, conflicts, and human drama churning just beneath. When not writing novels, Brighton is an adventurer, having traveled to fifty-six countries around the world, and usually on only a few dollars a day. He is a relentless researcher who, before writing any of his historical novels, spent almost four years reading—cover to cover—four major newspapers from 1897–1904. Among his somewhat quixotic career choices, he has been a mule wrangler, a bison rancher, and a vintage automobile restorer. A graduate of the Sorbonne, Brighton is an admirer of Emily Dickinson and Jim Morrison. He is fond of tinkering with anything mechanical, splitting firewood, and playing fingerstyle guitar. In addition to writing and music, Robert is a seasoned voice actor who brings stories to life with his voice. He’s narrated three of his own audiobooks and lends his talents to a variety of literary and corporate projects. Robert has developed a structured teaching approach, The Brighton Method, that helps public figures, learners, writers, and lifelong learners build confidence in reading, writing, and speaking. His method blends structure, clarity, creativity, and practical skill-building for lasting results. He lives in Virginia with his wife and their two British Shorthair cats.
