Books like this? Set in modern times but dealing with supernatural / occult themes that have a link with the past?

Don't mock me please I'm going through a weird phase.

I once read a movie named Black Order by James Rollins.This is the description straight from the websiste:
In the mountains of Nepal…in a remote monastery, Buddhist monks inexplicably turn to cannibalism and torture while Painter Crowe, director of Sigma Force, begins to show signs of the same baffling, mind-destroying malady…and Lisa Cummings, a dedicated American doctor, becomes the target of a brutal, clandestine assassin.

It was pretty good and is part of a series, so I'll probably go back and see if others are as good. It loosely fits some of what you're talking about and has that feel.

>>12494637
I tried to read the LN, I really did. But either the translation is shit or the original was shit because it reads like a fucking glorified outline. I damn near want to rewrite the whole thing myself to make the admittedly good story worth consuming.
