Book Synopsis In the Shadow of the Guillotine by : J. B. Neale
Book excerpt: FRANCE 1794: THE REIGN OF TERROR...On holiday in France, Sam and the Boffin discover an old clock. Or what they think is an old clock - until it transports them back in time to 1794. Catapulted into the middle of the French Revolution, the boys find themselves embroiled in a plot to free the imprisoned Dauphin, heir to the throne of France. Led by the inventor of the time machine and his beautiful daughter Charlotte, they must pit their wits against the ruthless dictator Robespierre and his sinister aide, Catherine Théot. All, of course, in the terrifying shadow of one of man's most gruesome inventions: the guillotine...In the Shadow of the Guillotine is an exciting history-based adventure for young people aged ten and up.
