Summary: When Angela Dove’s stepmother, Debi, was murdered in Modesto, California, it devastated her family. They were re-victimized when the case went unsolved. However, Debi's mother, Jacqueline MacDonald, turned her grief into a one-woman crusade to find her daughter's killer. It took her 9 years, but she succeeded. Along the way, she founded a local television and radio show called "The Victim's Voice" to help others bring attention to their cold cases--today, "The Victim's Voice" is broadcast to over 2 million homes throughout the central valley. When Jacqueline asked Angela to write her story, she was honored. As a columnist she frequently looks for stories that inspire and encourage, and Jacqueline's story did just that. However, as Angela was the last person to see her stepmother alive, she knew writing about the case would be difficult. Unfortunately, what she discovered while researching the case was far more devastating—her own father had been the top suspect in the case for years, and for very good reasons. Angela finally understood what had driven her father to self-destruction. Angela Dove’s book, No Room for Doubt: A True Story of the Reverberations of Murder became the story of a heroic mother who eventually found justice for her murdered daughter. It incorporates her father's story, but also the stories of those who worked this case (which, coincidentally, led to the formation of the CSI unit in Modesto, which later handled the Petersen case).
