But when Mrs. Alice Foster comes to the door of his small apartment, she’s not missing a pet, or even a loved She wants Smokey to find her husband’s killer. Three weeks ago, Louis Foster was found propped up against a tree in a city park, stabbed once through the heart. The cops have given up, and Smokey isn’t It’s 1968, and the Chicago PD cops who responded to the scene have clearly written off the death of this black man as a mugging gone wrong, or something equally unimportant. Case closed.
