Rosedale House

Formerly disgraced and now vindicated, ex-CSISCanadian Security and Intelligence Serviceagent and electronic surveillance expert, Ian Stephenson, has just been given the opportunity of a lifetime: he's taking over from security service legend, RCMP Superintendent Edward Smith.

Ian's boyhood friend and adult nemesis, criminal mastermind John Hepburn is now under arrest and held under guard at Rosedale House, a mansion in Toronto's toniest midtown neighbourhood. Aside from the wildly successful criminal enterprises John Hepburn operated before, during and after his stint at CSIS, John Hepburn is suspected of a 1998 shotgun double murder and attempted murder of Sophie Scanlon.

Superintendent Edward Smith plans to put Hepburn's criminal expertise to use, but Hepburn's not cooperating.

Since nobody knows the secretive and devious John Hepburn better than Ian Stephenson, Smith has put Hepburn's motivation in Stephenson's capable hands and Stephenson comes up with a can't-miss motivational strategy for "Johnny".

Sophie Scanlon, Stephenson's fiancée and unofficial aid-de-camp, is looking forward to a life free of John Hepburn, only to discover her new job involves minding John and working out of Rosedale House, John Hepburn's current residence.

To further complicate matters, on the eve of Sophie's wedding to Ian, Sophie's former best friend shows up at her door with an explosive secret. Sophie soon discovers that Stephenson isn't the only one with a toxic "best friend" from the past.

Rosedale House is the sequel to The Summer of 2011 and is the second novel in The Stephensons' Series.
