The Secret Seven is a classic children’s mystery series written by Enid Blyton, published between 1949 and 1963. The series follows a group of seven children who form a secret detective society and work together to solve mysteries in their local area.
The society is led by Peter as chairman, with his sister Janet as secretary. Along with their friends Pam, Barbara, Jack, Colin, and George, they meet at their headquarters to discuss cases and plan investigations. Seven-year-old Scamper the dog often accompanies them on their adventures, though he’s not officially counted as one of the seven.
Unlike the Famous Five, who adventure primarily during school holidays, the Secret Seven operate year-round, meeting regularly and maintaining their society even during school terms. Their headquarters is a shed at the bottom of Peter and Janet’s garden, complete with a password system and proper minutes for their meetings. This structured approach to solving mysteries gives the series its unique character.
With 15 original novels in the series, the Secret Seven have captivated generations of young readers with stories of friendship, teamwork, and the thrill of being detectives.
