Show Notes

When beauty salon owner Dana Satterfield was brutally raped and murdered inside her Roebuck Hair and Tanning Center, the tight-knit community was shattered.  Dana left behind two young children, including a young daughter, Ashley. Little did she know, her face would play a key role in bringing down her mother's killer years later.


Trey Gowdy, host of Sunday Night in America and the Trey Gowdy Podcast, joins the show to discuss how he secured justice in this haunting case and how it inspired his New York Times bestselling novel, The Color of Death.
