When I first read the article about the story I went away the idea that the hiding place was called 'the 4,9,5'. Of course, right next to that it says that it used to be called the actual name in the grid but, needless to say, I completely overlooked that.

Thankfully I noticed in the grid what looked like a much more likely name and that prompted me to revisit the source materal.

What a plalava, completely of my own making.

Thanks to Shark for a lovely puzzle and the way the result of the instruction all comes together is quite amazing:-)

Exactly my mistake too, Brendan. Quite a bit of self-kicking ensued!

Making that change means that both missing members disappear. What should be submitted? And it is possible to make a windy line through the nine-letter of the hiding place. Coincidence?

Should have said "nine-letter location". Is there any way to edit comments here?

Yes, both the one hiding in plain sight and the one in hiding disappear. What needs highlighting is 7 letters, 2 words. in a straight vertical line.

I should have added that I think your 9 letters might refer to the general area rather than the specific hiding place needed.
