What's The Big Question About

Publisher Summary

It’s the day before Christmas, and Loper and Sally May have left Slim to manage the ranch while they go off to visit relatives for the holidays. But, just when it begins to look like another boring bachelor Christmas with Slim, a storm blows in and the electric fence separating a herd of steers from the highway shorts out. Now it’s up to Slim, Viola and the ranch’s Security Division to jump into action! Things take a surprising twist when Slim comes down with a burning fever in the middle of the operation, but nobody, and especially not Miss Viola, could have been prepared for the even bigger surprise that transpires on the way to the hospital!
