"Twin Peaks" coming to bookstores as a novel

More good news for "Twin Peaks" fans -- the eerie TV town will be available between covers.

Flatiron Books says its Macmillan division will publish "The Secret Lives of Twin Peaks," a novel that promises to reveal what has happened to the residents of that mythical burg since they were last seen a quarter-century ago on the groundbreaking ABC series, which aired in 1990-91.

The publisher said Thursday the book is being written by Mark Frost, who was co-creator and executive producer of the series with David Lynch. It will be published in advance of the nine-episode Showtime sequel announced last week to air in 2016.

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," Frost said. "I couldn't be more thrilled."

The Showtime limited series will be written and produced by the original creators, and Lynch will direct.
