Private Enemy No. 1 was the fifty-fifth Bernice Summerfield audio story released by Big Finish Productions. It was the third story of the Epoch series.
Publisher's summary
"The Great Leader is dead... Long live the Great Leader!"
Atlantis is in disarray. The Historians are hiding Bernice, Leonidas and Ruth within their safe house – but the world is changing more than they could have ever imagined.
People are being erased from existence, their memories wiped clean and replaced with those of others. Entire buildings are altering, times are changing... and the Hierophants are on the move.
Can Bernice and her friends save Atlantis from the end of existence? Or will they too be assimilated?
Plot
With the Great Leader destroyed, the Temple of Poseidon is left empty and his followers are in chaos. Helena is discussing the situation with her father, Craisus, when she suffers a seizure and becomes Gaudium of the Hierophant; Craisus forgets that she was once his daughter and recognises her as a Hierophant, offering her his apologies.
With the authorities looking for her since the Great Leader's destruction, Benny is in a Historian safe house for her own safety and Leonidas goes out to try to put together a fish finger sandwich for her and learns of the Hierophants. He realises that he is being followed by Gaudium and warns Cordin, a fellow Historian who is accosted by her and ordered to give Benny's location to the Epoch; when he pleads ignorance, he has a seizure and becomes a Hierophant called Macabre whilst retaining Cordin's memories.
Darion, a big fan of Benny's, visits her and tells her that people who remember before Year Zero have started speaking out and the Historians are petitioning to allow her to speak at the Senate. When Leonidas returns, he finds that Darion remembers the Hierophants being around for years and a group of them, led by Macabre, approach the building.
