Created by Harry Hunsicker
Still haunted by her three-year-old daughter Ivy’s disappearance fifteen years ago, battered former CIA operative MEG DALTON now works off-the-books as a freelance black ops agent for the US government.
And yes, she has a “a very particular set of skills.”
We first meet her in the well-received and fiercely relentless Mother May I (2026), where — in the aftermath of a fucked up operation in Los Angeles — she discovers a woman wearing what looks like Ivy’s butterfly necklace, giving her hope that her daughter might still be alive.
Defying her handlers, “Mad Meg” goes rogue, intent on discovering the truth, and soon runs afoul of not just the FBI, but human traffickers, various foreign agents, and an outlaw biker gang.
Suffice it to say asses are kicked.
Not sure if Harrty’s planning Meg as a series character, but the buzz is impressive.
UNDER OATH
- “Taken meets Thelma and Louise in this adrenaline-rush read that packs plenty of heart in with the non-stop action. This may be Harry’s best novel yet.”
— Lee Goldberg on Mother May I - “Mother May I is as fierce and relentless as a Texas tornado. Don’t mess with an ex-CIA agent on a quest to find her long lost daughter.”
— Meg Gardiner - “Hunsicker delivers a dazzling thrill ride about a mother hell-bent on finding her missing daughter. Readers are advised to clear their schedules before starting this one, because they won’t be able to put it down. It’s on par with the best of Harlan Coben, Gillian Flynn, and Matthew Quirk.”
— Publishers Weekly on Mother May I (Starred Review)
