    Not sure whether you're asking as a quiz question or whether you genuinely want to know the answer.

    Kingsley Amis writing as Robert Markham wrote the first continuation novel, Colonel Sun, after Fleming's death.

    Or do you know different?

    Thanks, I truly wanted to know. I had read the book years ago and can only remember the foreword in which a family representative introducded the new author. I had the title "Murder in the Loo" stuck in my head.
    Again, Thanks!

    So that's where the pre-credit sequence of CR came from.... B-)
