That wouldn't be my top genre for that book .... but .... having read it, his thesis is that the "Flash traders" on Wall Street are doing something morally wrong which SHOULD be considered a crime (even though its not). So I can see how two or so people would file it under MYSTERY > CRIME.

I've read it, too - just would never have thought to file it as "mystery."

I ordinarily wouldn't use it for 25.6 but with only 2 weeks left in this challenge, it is time for me to be realistic about what books I'll be able to finish for the challenge.

oh, it's not that - the genre is there, you can certainly use it. I just was surprised to see it as the genre for this book.
