“You could find beauty nearly anywhere if you stopped to look for it, but the battle to get through the days made it easy to forget that this totally cost-free luxury existed.” Career of Evil, Chapter 23
Clarence Terrace is the small street in Marylebone, London, where Strike’s girlfriend Elin Toft lives.
Her flat is described as “spectacular” and “vanilla-coloured” with a view over Regent’s Park.
Clarence Terrace is just around the corner from Baker Street, “a short walk past the silhouette of Sherlock Holmes at Baker Street station”.
Baker Street is famous for its association with fictional detective Sherlock Holmes and has a Sherlock Holmes museum at 221B.
