Bride & Groom
“I knew Victoria Trotter, whom I’d interviewed for two articles I’d written, one about her famous mother, the late Mary Kidwell Trotter, a dog portrait artist, and the other about Victoria’s own canine version of the tarot. I owned a Victoria Trotter deck of the cards and consulted them every once in a while, strictly to get a reading on themes I might be overlooking in my life and the lives of my dogs, not to foresee what I trusted was the unforeseeable future. Still, because of Victoria’s taro...t, it’s worth noting that I had no premonition of her violent death.In fact, between the Saturday when I talked with Gabrielle and the Friday when Victoria was bludgeoned to death I paid only routine attention to the security precautions that city dwellers take automatically. As always, I kept the doors to my car and house locked. As I’d always done everywhere and fully intend to do for the rest of my life on earth and for eternity in the beyond, I spent nearly every waking and sleeping moment, indoors and outside, surrounded by big dogs.MoreLess
