I was looking at True Crime as a category and maybe that makes more sense instead of Crime as Thriller and Crime seem to have an awful lot of overlap in my searches. Definitely be looking to add that one as a book I'd usually never read.

Most of the books listed are going to be a bit more obscure just because the countries are getting more difficult now. For new countries I've got: Boliva, The Gambia, Guinea, Belarus, Belgium, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Colombia, Honduras, Hungary, Iraq, Israel, Jordan, Mongolia, and Oman.

I might have to pare that down a bit because the cost of my challenge is looking to be >$100 if I don't rely on my library to inter-library a bunch of titles which might be dead ends as well.

I'm thinking of switching pulp with hard-boiled because the covers of all the hard-boiled titles from the 50s and 60s are just so great.
