One of Fleming’s best friends was Noel Coward, so he’d certainly know how to write about what the English call “poofters”

That is exactly who I was thinking about but his name did not come to me.

Yeah....I've just finished a book about Ian Fleming and his life in Jamaica at his getaway house, Goldeneye.

He wrote all of the Bond books there.

His favorite mistress's son founded Island Records and now owns Goldeneye as well.

As far as the upcoming book, all I can say is that Horowitz is a good writer (he writes official Sherlock Holmes tales commissioned by the Conan Doyle Estate) and his TV series, Foyle's War, is one of my favorite of the PBS Masterpiece Mystery programs.

Keeping fingers crossed.....
