Fr. Finns Famous Three!
Tom Playfair, Percy Winn, and Harry Dee

Tom Playfair

Resembling a Catholic version of Charles Dickens’ stories, or even the Hardy Boys, the various adventures of Tom Playfair were read by hundreds of thousands of young people in the late 19th and 20th centuries. But young Catholics today love Tom Playfair too! Their quaint turn-of-the-century language is part of the charm of the stories as is Fr. Finn’s own brand of humor. When the kids “get into” his style they find it hilarious!
But besides being good fun, the stories have a moral. Tom Playfair is an unruly little boy when he is first sent to St. Maure’s boarding school, but he develops into a good Catholic young man and a leader—without ever losing his high spirits.

Percy Winn

What do you do with a boy who has grown up in a family with ten sisters? You and your family will find the entertaining and inspirational answer in Percy Wynn, the second installment in the beloved Tom Playfair series by Fr. Francis J. Finn. At first Tom and his pals at St. Maure's school can hardly believe that the mannerly and soft-spoken Percy has never gone skating, boating, swimming, or even played baseball! But, as Tom determines to make an "all-American boy" of the fragile Percy, he discovers under his delicate exterior a boy of brains, courage and high Catholic ideals.

Harry Dee

Young Harry Dee arrives at St. Maure's School for Boys thin and pale from a painful past, which includes the murder of his rich uncle. There he meets new friends Tom Playfair and Percy Wynn. Together they share many wild experiences as they endeavor to help Harry recover from his early trauma and solve "the mystery of Tower Hill Mansion." In this final installment of the beloved Tom Playfair series by Fr. Francis J. Finn, we follow the boys as they graduate from St. Maure's to head toward the life's work to which God is calling each of them as young Catholic men.
