Check out the Netflix series Dirk gently. That's more or less the power of the main character... But also kinda a spoiler, sorry!

It's really good! Don't know about the books.

I read the first book, its a blast. Haven't had time to try the series and am always scared of live action interpretations.

It was decent interpretation, but of course the dumb fucks at BBC America cancelled it after the 2nd season because it was marginally less popular than Orphan Black.

also because the creator was accused of misbehaviour towards women

I heard it's quite a different story, but follows similar themes.
