The Five Find-Outers are five children living in the Home Counties village of Peterswood who solve mysteries together during the school holidays. They are are Laurence "Larry" Daykin, Frederick Algernon "Fatty" Trotteville, Philip "Pip" Hilton, Margaret "Daisy" Daykin and Elizabeth "Bets" Hilton. There's also a dog, Buster, who belongs to Fatty.Apart from tackling criminals, the children have to face the wrath of the bumbling village policeman, PC Theophilus Goon, who bears a grudge against them (especially Fatty) for solving crimes before him. Recurring characters include Inspector Jenks, friend of the children, and Ern Goon, PC Goon's nephew who sometimes comes to stay with his uncle for the school holidays.One of the more popular of Enid Blyton's series, which may be due to the sense of old-time and nostalgia in the books (the series was started in the 1940's). Unlike Timmy in the The Famous Five, Buster does not officially count as one of the Five, which is why they are sometimes referred to as the Five Find-Outers and Dog.
