About this listen

Nim is a master swimmer floating on waves of wet hope. His penance is to swim and carry, but his heart is held onboard a grieving ship in the aquamarine prison of her eyes.

She is his sentence and he is hers. Will a mysterious humanoid jellyfish reunite the star-crossed lovers?

Note: This audiobook contains graphic sex and violence, and is not suitable for listeners under the age of 18.

Punishment by Hope is a wildly poetic and surreal odyssey through sexual obsession, murder, and retribution, set in a bioluminescent Dantesque world of fiery and aquatic horrors.” (Barbie Wilde, author The Venus Complex, Voices of the Damned and actress Hellbound: Hellraiser II)

“A dreamlike seascape of desperate wishes, and a nightmarish vision of love’s life and death, this is a powerful, haunting tale.” (Tim Lebbon, author of Eden)

Punishment by Hope is a vivid and erotic fantasy mystery. Hofstatter weaves a memorable spell.” (James Bennett, author of Chasing Embers)
