Mentioned by several characters in Detachment 1039, Mary Cobbler and the Secret of Frogwarts
is a popular middle-grade children's book about a twelve year old
witch-in-training who solves mysteries while attending a prestigious wizarding
school in England. What most of the Stone Soldiers world doesn’t know is that
Kristina “KJ” Bowling actually based the stories in her books on her own experiences as a
child—something that very nearly cost her life in the year 2000.
Not long after Mary
Cobbler was released in print, the coven of witches running the Blackmoor
Academy discovered that the book contained a number of their secrets—all thinly
veiled under pseudonyms and parodies. A check of their records revealed that Bowling
had herself been a student at Blackmoor, until she was expelled. The coven and their allies set out to immediately quiet Bowling, attempting
to assassinate her on multiple occasions until they themselves were eliminated
by Detachment 1039 (see Magician of
Interest, Shadow Detachment #11, coming Fall of 2018).
Today, Bowling lives in extreme seclusion, carefully watched
by the United States military, to whom she continues to feed secrets about Blackmoor
and the circle of covens that established it—while also continuing the adventures
of her beloved characters in a series of novels that continue to sell around
the world.
