Suggest me a book where the MC starts good, then becomes evil, then redeems himself.
Bonus points if the character is from a speculative fiction book (fantasy, horror, paranormal, sci-fi) or even better, a biography ( because real life can be fantastic)
For biography you could go with {{The Autobiography of Malcolm X}} as Malcolm was somewhat of a decent person who fell into criminal behaviour as a convenience of his surroundings. Whilst he did turn his life around (relatively speaking) I believe he turned his life around after leaving the NOI and coming into the fold of a more orthodox religion with Islam.

A honorable mention of the Saga of the Exiles / Galactic Milieu series by Julian May.

The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August is pretty close to matching your requirements.
