Jackson convinces Emily that ranching in Mexico will make their fortune.

When he does arrive Jackson has eyes for the Mexican ladies, which destroys any thought of marriage. Emily returns to England to find that the Empire she loves has become cruel in its colonial war with the Boers in South Africa.
