Earlier this month, Showtime revealed they are resurrecting Mark Frost and David Lynch's Twin Peaks in a limited series due out in 2016, but if you've ever wondered what happened to the residents of Twin Peaks, Washington after they went off the air, you might be equally excited to hear that co-creator Frost is writing a novel due out in late 2015 that will explore the lives of Twin Peaks citizens over the past nearly 25 years.
Official press release via Geeked Out Nation: "(New York—October 16, 2014) Bob Miller, Flatiron Books president and publisher, announced today that the Macmillan division will publish THE SECRET LIVES OF TWIN PEAKS, a novel that reveals what has happened to the people of that iconic fictional town since we last saw them 25 years ago and offers a deeper glimpse into the central mystery that was only touched on by the original series. The book is written by New York Times bestselling author Mark Frost, cocreator and executive producer of the series with David Lynch. Frost will co-write and executive produce with Lynch the upcoming highly anticipated SHOWTIME® sequel, a limited series which was announced last week to air in 2016. THE SECRET LIVES OF TWIN PEAKS will be published in advance of the SHOWTIME series, on sale in late 2015, and was sold in an exclusive by Ed Victor of Ed Victor, Ltd. to Miller, with editorial director Colin Dickerman editing.
THE SECRET LIVES OF TWIN PEAKS has also been picked up all over the world. In the UK, Pan Macmillan will publish, Finnish rights sold to Otava, Mondadori will publish in Italy, in Brazil, rights were sold to Companhia das Letras, and Kiepenheuer & Witsch are the German publishers.
Of the acquisition, Mark Frost said: “Bob Miller and I have enjoyed a fantastic fifteen year relationship in publishing. This has long been a dream project of mine that will bring a whole other aspect of the world of Twin Peaks to life, for old fans and new. I couldn’t be more thrilled.
