This is a very British story in an American publication. The mum is completely obsessed with the USA in the 1950s to the point she named her children Jimmy and Karen. And she finds this unusual house with a flat level basement filled with 1950s stuff and purchases the house, contents included. The father has no say in anything. But there's more than American collectables in that basement.
It is titled The House of Tomorrow and was published yesterday.
And if you are interested in quicksand, google Crosby Beach quicksand or read this article from the Echo. Another big risk of being caught in quicksand (this doesn't actually form a big part of my story, I just made a passing comment to quicksand warning signs on beaches) is having your trousers, boots, socks and undergarments suctioned away by it and hypothermia. Here's information about the Lifeboats and a facebook page for the coast guard. And if you are interested in visiting the beach on a trip to Liverpool, this one has dunes and I haven't heard of quicksand on it (it doesn't mean it isn't there though). I might end up writing a story about quicksand.
