Goodreads asked Stewart Home:

What mystery in your own life could be a plot for a book?

Stewart Home Was my father actually JFK?

I don't know who my father was but my mother worked as a hostess at Murray's Cabaret Club in London with Profumo Affair sex scandal stars Christine Keeler & Mandy Rice-Davies.

The non-fiction book Honey Trap by Anthony Summers and Stephen Dorril suggests the Profumo Affair was a cover up for JFK's involvement with Mariella Novotny (also famous for a role in Profumo Affair) and other sex workers from the same circle - which included Keeler, Rice-Davies & my mother Julia Callan.

JFK came to London in the summer of 1961 and 9 months later I was born. Since it is quite likely my father was one of my mother's johns and she was part of a circle of sex workers from which JFK pulled women to bed, it is possible - but not probable - that the American president is my father....

I paint a lightly fictionalised picture of my mother's life in my 2005 novel Tainted Love but her connections to those involved in the Profumo Affair could provide the plot for a whole new book.
