In dedicating The Sixth Column to 'My brother Ian', Peter Fleming became the first to dedicate a novel to his younger brother and creator of James Bond, Ian Fleming. Widely considered to be influential in shaping James Bond and the first Bond novel, Casino Royale, in particular. A spy thriller, The Sixth Column's central character is a thriller writer who creates a protagonist similar to Bond, and the novel draws attention to the UK's need for a swaggering and fearless hero. Ian Fleming set about writing Casino Royale jsut a few months after The Sixth Column was published.
