Books like Second Sight by Jayne Ann Krentz
Venetia Milton, on the brink of poverty and the march toward spinsterhood, accepts a commission to photograph artifacts at Arcane House—a secluded estate run by the secretive Arcane Society. Her employer, Gabriel Jones, a man with sorcerer‑like eyes, is as mysterious as the ancient alchemist who founded the society. When Gabriel is murdered, Venetia inherits his fortune and opens a gallery in London, adopting the identity of Mrs. Jones to honor his memory. Yet her romantic impulses lead her into peril: Gabriel literally returns to her life through their shared psychic connection, and a stolen Arcane House notebook containing a formula to enhance clairvoyant powers threatens both of them. The thief is willing to kill anyone who can protect the society’s treasures, including Venetia.
