Re: Help Identifying a genre / stories in that genre
To use your breakdown of elements: Crime, primarily urban setting. Heavy oppressive weather (rain/snow...Alaska). World feels alive (remarkable because it's building a society from the ground-up). Interesting characters. Detective work/murder mystery. Government/religious conspiracy (arguably with ancient roots).
On the other hand, your "hero feels powerful" criteria seems like it might be a total miss. I don't want to get into spoilers because it is a remarkable story, but I'll just say that a.) "powerlessness" could be said to describe multiple characters/arcs and b.) that doesn't mean it's a really depressing/grim book!
