I think there is more behind the name of the Hotel Denemount. i think it could be a riddle, or more likly an anagram. Does anyone know the meaning of the word? Tell me what you think

I did lots of research and found that Dene- means a sandy tract or dune by the seashore.

Ok, I won't say like the rest of the 'old' members: "Go and look for old threads, this has been discussed 1984 times". But in fact it has been discussed before.
Denouement is a literary term that refers to the ending of a story and how the plot solves.

Try to guess why I said "it has been discussed 1984 times"? It is an allusion used in TEE.

And it's french... And means pretty much the same thing. How the plot resolves after the climax. Not to be confused with the conclusion.
