    If one of those guys is the love interest, he's looking way too old for her.

      Rupert is the uncle, Mehdi is the love interest, it says in the post :)

      No, but he's her uncle so that would be a bit ick if she fell in love with him. If I were her, I'd go for the dark and lovely man to the right.

      They will probably end up in dirty slums unless they kill the poor uncle... or set a lion on him, if they have lions on Mau Ritius, which I doubt.

    Both of those sound like they'll be pretty good.

    These both look good.. although "novel within a novel" concerns me. Hopefully it isn't another confusing plot.

      I've started watching Luminaries, and they have the most confusing time lines.
