Craig “Mac” McKenzie
Libby was Megan’s and Mac’s daughter. When Libby was just a few months old, Megan took Libby into the bath with her—but when Megan fell asleep, Libby drowned. Megan still carries the trauma of having inadvertently killed her daughter, and her aversion to motherhood and childcare stems from her fear of repeating her mistakes with Libby.
