Character History[]
The Ghost In the Killer[]
Donna Hastings works as a gardener and appears to be very protective of Trent McNamara. She is employed on the McNamara family estate.
The Nail in the Coffin[]
It's revealed by Temperance Brennan that Donna was the half sister to both Trent McNamara and Stephanie McNamara. Her mother met her father, Giles McNamara, who was well known for being unfaithful, while working on the McNamara estate, and she later gave birth to Donna, who grew up alongside the McNamara's legitimate children on the estate. As the last surviving McNamara (though illegitimate), she stood to inherit a billion dollar fortune by the death of her siblings. She was taken in for questioning by Temperance Brennan and Seeley Booth, who believed that she was responsible for killing Stephanie McNamara but was eventually released and the real killer identified.
