Sum total: 80 extra points

Robert Harris's Imperium has white lettering (and the lower part of the cover is black).  In addition, the holders of Ancient Rome's public offices -- including this book's protagonist, Marcus Tullius Cicero -- had to organize a variety of games to entertain the citizens, so the words "game" and "games" appear repeatedly throughout the text.

Maycomb County Courthouse: the crime scene that would fit most obviously with our game's murderer (and unlike her own characters as victims, it's not off limits to her per se).

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is genre YA and features two characters who are fathers -- Mr. Weasley and Mr. Diggory (plus an honorary third one, Sirius Black).  In addition, Hermione embarks on a campaign of "justice for house elves."
