Description

About the Author Steve Kittner was born and raised in Elkview, West Virginia and spent his youth in the hills and along the muddy banks of the Elk River; fishing, hunting, hiking, biking and playing ball, as kids of his generation did. Upon graduation Steve built houses, worked in the oilfield, and then found himself in the airline industry for the next twenty-one years in four different cities. In 2007 Steve moved to Florida and started his own contracting business which he still runs today and, of course, works as a part-time author. Writing is a hobby that he has enjoyed most of his life, having written a few stories as a kid, one of which was displayed in the old Sunrise Museum in Charleston. His roots are deeply planted in West Virginia and his novels come straight from the heart as well as from some of the experiences and adventures he had as a boy. Steve resides in Central Florida with his wife, Valentina, and children...and he still enjoys a good adventure every now and then.

Features & Highlights

  • Once again, Josh Baker and Eddie Debord find themselves among the hills, hollows, and rivers of West Virginia in yet another fast paced adventure mystery! What started out as a quiet week of camping during a beautiful “Indian Summer” over Thanksgiving break—ends up as an inexplicable week of suspense, mystery, adventure, and intrigue. The boys are the first responders to a crashed airplane deep within the woods. It doesn’t take long to find out that this C-47 Skytrain had gone down in 1953 and was carrying a very mysterious and highly sensitive cargo. Very quickly, the CIA takes control of the crash site as Josh and Eddie find themselves under the microscope of the agency (for a very good reason!)! There are men in dark clothing watching them from around every corner. They seek the help of some familiar friends and some new acquaintances as well, while trying to find out what this mysterious cargo is and why it is still so important today. Thinking the CIA could be their worst nightmare, the boys could not have been more wrong. Who comes to town next will stop at nothing to reclaim what they say is theirs, and they are quick to prove it! Ultimately, Josh, Eddie and Brad must decide whether to let this one go, or to once again risk their lives to see it through. One thing is for sure…they cannot allow the cargo to fall into the wrong hands! …Be careful wishing for big adventures…one may find you!!!

If you grew up reading books about mystery and adventure you will love this book

This is another exceptional book by Steve Kittner! If you grew up reading books about mystery and adventure you will love this book. But please read "River Rocks" by Steve Kittner first. It's about two young men, Eddie and Josh and their friend Brad and the exciting and sometimes dangerous adventures they get into along the Elk River. These books will leave you anxiously waiting for the next one to come along!

I read River Rocks and thoroughly enjoyed it. What Lies in the Hills is better ...

I have known Steve since he was a teenager and was so excited to learn he had written a book. I read River Rocks and thoroughly enjoyed it. What Lies in the Hills is better than his first book. Didn't want to put the book down!! I am anxiously awaiting the release of his next book.
