Nightfall (Keeper of the Lost Cities, #6)

“Not the revenge I meant, Bangs Boy,” Keefe said with an enormous eye roll. “I meant revenge for what happened to his mom. Wylie could act like he thinks my mom killed Cyrah—it’s not like it’s a stretch, since I’m still not convinced she didn’t do it. And he could say he went to the Black Swan for help and we refused, because we’re working with her. So now he’s going to the other side to see if they’ll take her down for him, and offering the secrets as a trade.” “I actually could see them believing that,” Mr. Forkle admitted. “So could I,” Granite mumbled. “Though I’m sure they’d still be suspicious.” “Suspicious is fine,” Blur reminded him. “As long as they leave the facility to go to the meeting.” “Okay but . . . did I miss something?” Dex asked. “How is Wylie supposed to tell them any of this? We don’t have a way to hail the Neverseen.” “Could we leave a note?” Sophie said. “I know this is probably going to sound cheesy, but . . . the Neverseen must have a way of monitoring the Unity Fountain. So couldn’t Wylie write up a message, slip it in a bottle, seal it with their symbol, and leave it floating in there?”

That is actuslly a pretty solid plan. But, the Neverseen aren't dumb enough that EVERY SINGLE one of them would go to the meeting with Wylie. At least ONE of them could stay at the hideout...but Sophie and her friends can take down one of the Neverseen...so ya! It's a solid plan!
