It's also certain formats that have the biggest problem.
Romance is very popular. So is science fiction. Mysteries, not so much. (Actually, not at all, in my experience).
However, as I said, I'm by no means an expert on the things available through the darknet avenues. People who know more complete ways to search might be able to find more things - but that again brings up the question of how widespread. I'm no dummy, but there are places I won't go for the safety of my computer.

Which mystery series were you looking for, just out of curiosity?
