Rue Becquerel (Silas's Montmartre hideout)

In the story · Silas's apartment

The corner of Rue Becquerel and Rue de la Bonne, behind the Sacré-Cœur, stands in for the Opus Dei flat where the monk Silas receives his orders and punishes himself. The quiet stepped street gives a rare back view of the basilica's white dome.
