Truth be told, Donna is not a novelist. She is a script writer, screen writer, and playwright. This mystery is her first mystery novel, based on her concept script written for a television series. Her mentor encouraged her to write this as a novel to sell the screenplay. Initially, all dialog and action, the first draft was an “airplane book” easily read in a few hours. Then it became an audio book as her readers formed a group to hear pages read aloud every week.
