Meg Dalton

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.
