In 1913 Oklahoma, when her daughter Alice falls for the handsome, popular, and wealthy Walter Kelley, everyone is delighted, except for her mother, Alafair, who suspects, despite the lack of evidence, that Walter is linked to the brutal killing of his former wife and joins forces with her mother-in-law to prove that Alice's perfect beau is not so wonderful after all.

After teaching school for a short time, she enjoyed a career as an academic librarian, working for many years at the University of Oklahoma and at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona. The Old Buzzard Had It Coming, her first book, was named the best unpublished mystery of 2004 by The Oklahoma Writers'Federation For the past twenty years, Donis and her husband have lived in Tempe, Arizona.
