There is also 'Malice Aforethought' where the protagonist is planning a murder and we see what he does and what happens after. There are similar 'inverted' detective novels and the T.V. series Columbo successfully worked with that premise.
I didn't watch a whole lot of Columbo (more of a Murder She Wrote gal), but I suppose every crime series has villain protagonists. Law and Order LOVE playing with that grey zone, they have tons of cases where the murder was revenge, or a person who couldn't tolerate the abuse anymore etc.
Bookworms, which are you favorite protagonists who are also the villains?
