I thought the lights-out at the roulette wheel and the continual emphases on the quarters was remarkable. I enjoyed how the characters' placements along the line (including the murderer who dies at that boundary between good and evil) were plotted. Nevada being sin, and those who cross that line. But as the strangers - including a priest, a vacuum cleaner salesman, a Southern gangster, and a former singer - settle into their rooms, they discover that something strange is afoot inside and outside the hotel. In 1969 seven strangers find themselves at the El Royale, a novelty hotel at the border of California and Nevada.
