Not only would she behead him in time, but she'd do it politely and without mussing her dress.

Catherine Morland battles vampires and finds her own very special undead boyfriend in "Twilight at Northanger Abbey"?
Elinor, Marianne, and Margaret Dashwood investigate a series of mysterious (and very gory) murders while their friend Col. Brandon has a sinister secret in "Sense and Sensibility and Werewolves"?
Fanny Price stumbles upon more than she bargained for in her uncle's mysterious basement laboratory in "Mansfield Park, Or The Modern Prometheus"?
Emma Woodhouse and Mr. Knightley find adventure, danger, and romance in "Emma and the Curse of the Mummy's Tomb"?

The accountability imposed by another country for the CIA's kidnapping and torture reveals much about our own.
Fox News' morning show plays to type, talking about whether Muslims in the Army should face "special debriefings"
