Looking for books which explore mysteries that are on the lower stakes end of things. Something with at least a little bit of hope and optimism. Nothing by David Grann for example.
- True crime that doesn't have a lot of gratuitous violence or sexual assault, which may focus more on the psychology of individuals and methods used to explore the crime. The style of In Cold Blood but with less horrific crimes.
- Medical or Scientific based mysteries like The Ghost Map or The Surgeon of Crowthorne.
- Archaeological, Historical or Genealogical mysteries.
Nothing with Cryptids or Aliens please.
Thanks in advance.
