Coben doesn’t write like that. No swearing, no descriptive sex. About as far as he goes would be something like - we enjoyed each other, or, did you have a one nighter? - that sort of thing. Adults know the rest. As for violence, well, he writes thrillers, so yes, some noses and ribs get broken, some people get shot. It’s kind of hard to write a thriller where nobody gets hurt. I like his style, good story lines, without all of the f-bombs and graphic sex, or sick descriptive torture type violence a.k.a. Crouch/Konrath’s Jack Daniel’s series.

I don’t even know if there is an F-Bomb in this book to be honest. No sex. Some violence like maybe a gun shot or fist fight in this one. His books are easy to read for the most part just this one (Six Years) took
Me a minute to figure out some of the college professors and what not.

No, they don't. My son reads them with me, and he's 14.

This is the first book I've read by Coben and I agree with the answers before me. Because it's a action/suspense thriller, there is some violence whether it's with guns or other weapons. No swearing, no graphic sex scenes which to me add nothing to the story. It's the plot and characters I'm interested in, along with the pace. This was very fast and a real page turner for me, the suspense never let up!
