Mamie Butler

In the novel Nemesis, Mamie Butler is an American tourist, who goes on the Famous Houses and Gardens tour with her husband, Henry.

Mamie is talkative, and speaks in "resonant transatlantic tones".

While the tour group is visiting a Queen Anne Manor House, Mamie says that the room they are in has "quite an atmosphere". Henry tells those around him that Mamie is very sensitive to atmospheres.

After Miss Temple's death, Henry and Mamie decide to return to London. Mamie says that she feels unsafe, as if at any minute, someone might shoot at them or throw a stone at them. Henry tells her not to let her imagination go as far as that.
