Connect Savannah News & Opinion: "The magic of the marsh is on full display in Forever Across The Marsh , . . . Truly, the book is unique in that it deftly weaves seemingly separate stories together into one story of Melvin Scott, a newcomer to Savannah that quickly learns about Lowcountry life. Upon arriving from Rhode Island, Scott finds out he's allergic to no-see-ums. . . . Now, humor is a major part of Forever Across The Marsh , but that's just one factor. . . .The book also rolls in some deeper meanings. . . ." Simply put, there is nothing like this genre-defying novel. Forever Across The Marsh is an experience . You will feel the full range of human emotions. You will laugh. You will cry. And you will look at life differently. The book opens with Scott believing he has found a formula for becoming a millionaire, perhaps in less than thirty days. There is a problem. Scott lives in total chaos with his wife and young children in a house that is falling apart. This is all on top of leaving the military to start over again. What follows is a roller coaster ride of misadventures - both serious and hilarious. Scott's search for riches comes to a head when he meets a professional treasure hunter from Key West who has located one of Blackbeard's sunken ships in the marsh outside of Savannah, GA. Racing to join the treasure hunter, Scott stops in his tracks when he encounters the one person in the world who could keep him from finding the treasure. Find out if Scott ever finds what he was looking for and enjoy this one-of-a-kind ride across the marsh. Forever Across The Marsh is now forever linked to the real-life "Treasure Hunt" story of June 2019 as reported by Savannah Morning News, WTOC TV Savannah, Live 5 WCSC Charleston, Bluffton Today, Bryan County News, and others.

I'm pretty sure my mom told me I was reading by age 4, and I've always loved finding a great story to help me escape. Nothing allows the imagination to take root quite like a good story. That's a preface for why I'm writing a review; frankly there's been a smallish number of books that fit the "can't put it down" category for me. And I've read a lot. This is one of them. Pearson's book is successful in the regional fiction arena, a la Pat Conroy and John Grisham. With some Lewis Grizzard thrown in. You can "feel" the area the story is set in, and you will relate to the characters he introduces, particularly if you're from coastal SC and GA. But here's the deal. The author has successfully woven an inspiring, relatable, serious and funny tale that makes you NEED to know the outcome. And probably the most successful part of this book is the humor. If you can read this book without laughing out loud, then you probably aren't very much fun to be around." "I was given this book as a Christmas gift... She said it 'spoke' to her and after reading a few lines she knew she had found my gift. This author has done an amazing job weaving a story that I couldn't put down. He took me on an emotional roller coaster from laughing out loud to someone must have been cutting onions nearby. I LOVED it, incredible fun, and I'm truly grateful to my daughter-in-law and Mr. Pearson for a 5 star gift "
