After a purple storm sweeps around Planet Earth, stealing millions of people, four teenagers struggle to make it alone in London.
Drawn together by a series of bizarre coincidences, Ellie, Midge, Scott and Marty soon find themselves entangled with a bunch of interfering pensioners. Among the cast of players are flamboyant hairdresser Mr Rupert, Pearl the loud-mouthed tea lady, and June, a psychic, who travels the world on her motorbike.
As the tranquillizing effects of the Purple diminish, greed and the lust for power take hold. Penny Treasure, leader of the Decision Makers Council, dreams up an idea that could destroy the world forever.
In a desperate hunt to find the missing, clues are pieced together and some shocking secrets come tumbling out of the closet.

review to follow!I absolutely LOVED Purple so far, especially the way that Graham describes the characters. It's a fun read. :)
From my Editor's choice blog:Nowadays, it's not often I get so sucked into a book that I take hours off work to finish it, but that's exactly what happened when I fell into this fabulous story that spans all ages. Readers to date have been reaching for the superlatives when reviewing this enchanting parable. There is so much to like about this post-traumatic society that author, Graham J. Sharpe has conjured up, but I'm not going to spoil the plot by disclosing the whole synopsis.No need; with
Everyone aged 16 - 65 has vanished in a purple storm. The story starts 6 months after the catastrophic event, and we get to view this new reality through the eyes of fifteen-year old Ellie, who is living alone in London. Thanks to a series of bizarre coincidences Ellie meets a collection of fantastically written teenagers and pensioners (Marty, Pearl and Opal were my favourites). Although the storm has affected all of Planet Earth, the vast majority of the story unfolds in London. There are lots
A friend recommended this to me. It took me forever to get started on it. Once I did however, I could not put it down. You know how people gets on a bandwagon like with Vamps etc. and ride the train until it runs no more. So when I started on this book I went. Ok cool, I am not read out on any post apocalyptic reads, so this should be fun.What a shock when while reading I discovered that this story is totally unique. Some of the basis conforms to normal pa plot lines. Most of it is fresh, new

No one to tuck you in at night, or make chicken soup for you when you're feeling badly.We traverse this world (mainly in London) 6 months after the storm. We see things through Ellie's eyes. Ellie is just 15 years old, but forced through these bizarre circumstances to act more like a grown up. All
I love this book! The story line takes unexpected paths and kept me hooked! The characters felt like people I could know. They were quirky and fun, very original and had real problems that didn't always have solutions. Their unique journeys all come together to tell a story of awakening and reaching outside of ones-self. I love how the characters are compelled to look past the expectations they have of others and discover what's really there. The setting was so creative and impossible, but the
