croquet, anyone?

Arriving at the part, Mrs. Blanc reveals to you and the other guests that, alas, you are too late! The murder took place earlier that very day. The police inspector and medical examiner have already come and gone, though they have left reports scattered throughout the premises.

Mrs. Blanc hands each team a gift box, brightly wrapped in their team color. Opening the boxes reveals a croquet ball, one per box, and various other items that will assist you in your investigation.

Mrs. Blanc (scatterbrained at the best of times, which this is not), declares herself unable to recall exactly where she stashed the official reports, and suggests a round of croquet as distraction.
