Maggie--I've moved this down to Unsolved for you, as you will have more luck getting it ID'ed down there.

Do you remember anything about the book other than that it had the word Guillotine in it? And when was the recommendation made? Any way you can contact the person who recommended it?

There are about 22 pages of books what have the word Guillotine in the title or that are about them. So any other clues you have would be great.

Does the title word have an e on the end? If so that may help.

Still looking?

Michael Watson | 185 comments Could it have been Dry Guillotine: Fifteen Years Among The Living Dead by Rene Benbenoit? It's his account of his time as a prisoner in the penal colony of French Guiana.
