About this deal

FROM #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR JOY ELLIS, A TOTALLY ABSORBING CRIME THRILLER FULL OF STUNNING TWISTS AND TURNS. YOU WON’T BE ABLE TO PUT IT DOWN. In October 2018, the world received a dire warning: In just 12 years, without a drastic reduction in carbon-dioxide emissions, global warming will reach an unsustainable level. According to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report (PDF), global energy production from renewable sources needs to jump to 50%–60% to avoid rising sea levels, floods, droughts, and famine. At Solace House, we make it our mission to provide free, accessible, professional counseling and support services to anyone in emotional crisis.

Pieta House founder and Irish Senator Joan Freeman has joined Solace House, working with Irish immigrants in New York. Solace House is a Community Center for Grief and Healing, designed to be a nurturing place to guide children and adults through the difficult time following a death, whether sudden and unexpected or anticipated.

Solace House provides free, confidential, therapeutic counseling for anyone who is experiencing suicidal thoughts or suicidal distress, as well as those who engage in self-harm, or have been bereaved by suicide.

We believe that suicide is preventable and strive to make our services easily accessible and barrier-free. We seek to break down the stigma of mental health and suicide by creating an environment where people are comfortable seeking help for themselves, talking about their thoughts and feelings, and supporting and seeking help for suicidal loved ones. Reaching that level of renewable energy is an immense task. Almost half of the energy generated in the European Union (EU) comes from fossil fuels; in the United States, that number is 63%. In the EU, general household usage accounts for a 25.4% of all energy use, with 64.7% of that used for heating homes. In the United States, the average annual electricity consumption for a residential utility customer is 10,766 kilowatt hours (kWh). Instead, Solace is constructed of MFP Living Boards, a type of water-resistant chipboard (unlike regular chipboard, this one doesn’t emit formaldehyde), supplied by Pfleiderer. The second element of the building’s construction is nontoxic polyurethane foam from Lallafom USA to provide maximum insulation without harmful compounds. Two walls and the roof of the building are covered with Blachprofil 2, a modular steel sheeting that’s highly recyclable. The other exterior walls are sheathed with Siberian larch, harvested responsibly by Polish wood supplier DLH. Solace House opened its doors in 2015 when Ireland’s Senator Joan Freeman established a one-year pilot program in New York City, bringing this service’s first U.S. location from Ireland to Long Island City, Queens located in the New York Irish Center building.

A Solace House is small indeed—just 35 square meters (377 square feet) with a total living space of 45 square meters (385 square feet), thanks to a loft. Home sizes vary widely in Europe and North America; according to the UK’s Office of National Statistics, the average size of homes sold was 63 square meters (678 square feet) in Eastern European countries such as Lithuania and Latvia, 90 square meters (969 square feet) in the UK, 106 square meters (1,141 square feet) in Portugal, and a whopping 245 square meters (2,637 square feet) in the United States. Now, her husband has lost his job, the children are bullied at school, and someone is prowling around the garden at night. Someone who wants them gone. I am so grateful for the generosity, courage and vision of the Pieta Board who allowed me to work in America to identify and meet the need for ‘Helping The Irish Wherever They Are,’” said Senator Freeman. The design maximizes solar-energy production while minimizing heat loss or gain through the exterior walls. The roof is covered with solar panels. In a typical European climate, Solace House expects the solar installation to produce 6,500 kWh per year—inhabitants are expected to use around 6,000 kWh, a net gain of 500. Strong emotional reactions, like deep sorrow or anger, are natural reactions to the death of a loved one for children as well as adults

After a very successful one-year pilot program, and as the demand for our services grew rapidly, we became a permanent life-saving program, offering free services to adults, adolescents and children in New York. Modern filmmaking is realized through a digital pipeline, a system that organizes production and keeps everyone in sync. Can the built world benefit from borrowing ideas from this workflow?

Services are offered free of charge or for a modest fee. Please consider supporting children and families coping with grief by offering a tax-deductible donation. DONATE TO SUPPORT SOLACE HOUSE All Solace clients are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of gender identity, age, ethnicity, ability or sexuality. AN ISOLATED HOUSE WITH A TERRIBLE PAST. IS HISTORY REPEATING ITSELF FOR THE NEW FAMILY LIVING THERE? Founded by Pieta House founder and Irish Senator Joan Freeman, the senator has announced her departure from Pieta House on December 31 to concentrate solely on growing the US-based suicide and self-harm service. Intent on serving the Irish diaspora and all other communities and nationalities in New York, Solace House hopes to extend to other areas of the US with high Irish populations in the future. Holly Stewart moved into Solace House wanting a fresh start for her and her family. She knew a tragic murder had taken place there, but she didn’t know the full ghastly history of the house.

Solace House strives to provide cheap, high-quality homes that are emission free, carbon neutral, and energy positive. The three-year-old company unveiled its first product—a complete home in Warsaw, Poland—in September. I seek strength to carry on. I seek courage to move beyond pain. I seek faith to believe happiness will come again. Solace is my goal. I can find it. I can help others discover it.” — Solace House Affirmation You are not alone Joy Ellis was nominated for audiobook of the year at the British Book Awards 2019 and Crime and Thriller Book of the Year at the British Book Awards 2021 for The Patient Man.

So far, Solace has been mostly financed by its cofounders and with some small grants from the European Commission—notably 50,000 euros from the Horizon 2020 SME (Small and Medium Enterprises) Phase 1 Grant; 20,000 euros from European climate innovation initiative EIT Climate-KIC; and 50,000 euros from a variety of smaller grants and competitions. Several of the materials vendors also contributed to the construction of the demonstration home. This totally gripping mystery is perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves, Elly Griffiths, J M Dalgliesh, Rachel McLean, J.D. Kirk, Rachel Abbott, P. D. James, LJ Ross, Angela Marsons or Richard Osman. First opened in 2006 in Lucan, Co. Dublin, Pieta House, a renowned self-harm and suicide prevention center, is one of Ireland’s most popular charities with nine branches opened throughout the country.
