Going West: True Crime

This novel was featured during the discussion of the Gabby Petito case, where host Daphne noted that the suspect, Brian Laundrie, was a frequent reader and quoter of Chuck Palahniuk on social media. The book was highlighted because its plot, which centers on a serial killer on a cross-country road trip, led to public speculation that it may have influenced or been referenced in the planning of Gabby Petito’s murder. The hosts used the book primarily as a point of grim circumstantial association in the ongoing investigation.
