Who Killed My Daughter? is a 1992 non-fiction book by Lois Duncan [1] detailing Duncan's search for answers in the then-unsolved murder of her eighteen-year-old daughter, Kaitlyn Arquette, in July 1989.

Summary

On July 16, 1989, Arquette was shot to death while coming home from a friend's house in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Duncan conducted her own investigations, which included talking to her daughter's friends, and visiting a psychic. While the police believed the shooting to be random, Duncan believed the killing was by a Vietnamese gang running an insurance fraud and drug operation in which Arquette's boyfriend was involved. However, in 2021, fifty-five-year-old Paul Apodaca admitted to, and was later convicted of, the murder of Arquette along with two other women. [2]
