# Mr. Docker — The Powerhouse character guide

> Mr. Docker in The Powerhouse by John Buchan.

**Role:** supporting

**Also known as:** Docker, Your, your

**First appearance:** 0006-iv-i-follow-the-trail-of-the-super-butler

## Snapshot

The bland, watchful servant who moves through the Pitt-Heron household with an air of quiet authority, unsettling everyone who notices how much he seems to know.

## Who they are

He belongs to the domestic machinery of Charles Pitt-Heron's London life, yet his composure and the odd deference he commands from his supposed master mark him as something more than a hired man. The narrator's instinct that this 'super-butler' is worth investigating — that Lumley himself might be baffled where Docker might not — turns him into the first thread worth pulling. His presence sharpens the sense that the household has been quietly infiltrated long before anyone bolted.
