I loved 'The Force' and felt like his female characters were a bit more fleshed out in that book. It did include some gratuitous sex scenes, though. I read it a while back and can't remember if they were fetishize-y. . but it's about a corrupt cop so, they might've been. I'm guessing, from the character's POV it somehow ties into the plot. .?? The book made me uncomfortable for a handful of reasons but I didn't know this was a pattern of his. I enjoyed his content, what a shame :/
