About

Trevor Wallace, a tractor salesman with a lost childhood and a stalled relationship, is en route to Africa on business. In the Frankfurt airport he stumbles over the bag of Constance Ebenezer, a gregarious old lady who is travelling the world with extraordinary contraband in her luggage. Marooned briefly in Cairo together, these two unlikely companions embark on an emotional journey that turns Trevor's predictable and well-ordered world upside down.


Replete with coyotes, dog-headed gods and broken tractors, In the Hands of Anubis is a wonderfully playful exploration of human relationships and the unexpected guides we meet in life.
"Eriksson weaves her story with a natural simplicity. In the Hands of Anubis is touching and poignant."
"Compelling."
"In the Hands of Anubis is a lovely little book. It seems at times to touch on all the humor, the sadness, the joy of the human spirit."
"An engaging novel about love and loss."
"A lovely and loving exploration of hope and human connection."
"Characters are compelling, realistically drawn, and three-dimensional. Vibrant."
"The book is a page-turner from the get-go. Eriksson is particularly gifted at writing about the natural world and farm life in rural Alberta."
"In the Hands of Anubis is a moving story about what can happen when we are prepared to take risks and open ourselves up to embracing life's possibilities."
