The crucial sequel to the New York Times best-selling The Secret History of Twin Peaks, this audiobook bridges the 25-year gap and takes you deeper into the mysteries raised by the new series.

The return of Twin Peaks is one of the most anticipated events in the history of television. The subject of endless speculation, shrouded in mystery, fans will come flocking to see Mark Frost and David Lynch's inimitable vision once again grace the screen. Featuring all the characters we know and love from the first series, as well as a list of high-powered actors in new roles, the show will be endlessly debated, discussed, and dissected.

While The Secret History of Twin Peaks served to expand the mysteries of the town and place the unexplained phenomena that unfolded there into a vastly layered, wide-ranging history, Twin Peaks: The Final Dossier tells us what happened to key characters in the 25 years in between the events of the second series and the third, offering details and insights fans will be clamouring for. The audiobook also adds context and commentary to the strange and cosmic happenings of the new series. For fans around the world begging for more, Mark Frost's final take laid out in this novel will be required listening.

Excellent gap filler for the last season

Reviewed in Australia on 7 November 2017

This book is an excellent companion to the last season of twin peaks (to be watched before reading of course). It answers some important questions and serves as a kind of shock absorber for the mindfuck that was the last episode. It felt like this was Mark Frost (slightly) re-assembling David Lynch's multi dimensional cubist nightmare to facilitate a more satisfying departure from the series. I could not put this down. I am a twin peaks nerd though..

Okay accompaniment to the series but not essential reading

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 3 January 2018

Anyone who is invested in the Twin Peaks universe (multiverse?) will find enough in this book to be entertained, just not for very long. It's a very slight book. The presentation is beautiful, the conceit behind it (case files written by Tamara Preston for Gordon Cole) is engaging, but it's two hours reading tops.

Each file, more or less, deals with a different character, fleshing out what happened to them between the end of season 2 and during season 3. This has the unfortunate consequence that the first 80% of the book is pure exposition - it's not a novel. It's hard to shake the suspicion that these 'files' are very likely the result of Frost and Lynch sitting down pre-Season 3 writing and nailing down their characters' backstories. Again, we know and love these characters so any information about them is of some interest but don't expect revelations.

The final few files do attempt to address the situation that Season 3 left us to ponder but again, there are no answers here just a few details and clarifications. That's not a bad thing in my opinion, I enjoy the mystery, but some might find it frustrating. Equally, some of the popular characters are given pretty short shrift in the files while other, maybe less interesting, ones get a few pages.

I didn't read the Secret History so I can't compare the two books but I was a bit disappointed with the Final Dossier. Having delighted in Season 3 of the TV series I just expected something a bit weightier, with its own purpose. This felt to me like a way to monetise something that was probably a by-product of the script development process.

More footnotes, really, than files

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 16 March 2021

Although in the same format ad Frost’s previous ‘Secret History’, this is a thinner affair in all senses. While the original included interesting mock-ups of ‘authentic’ documents (files, cuttings, letters etc.) all the ‘files’ here are in the same format, tone and voice. Unfortunately, they do not read as authentic FBI quality reports, but more like footnotes to the series with elaborations on key characters and incidents up to the end of S3. The book certainly adds some depth and explanations to some of the puzzling incidents only glimpsed at in S3. Clearly the 25-year backstory was well developed (these notes may have derived from the scriptwriters’ character files) and relatively cohesive. The dossier therefore further reveals the fundamental creative tension in the show itself, between the conventional storytelling framework of Frost and the more allegorical and baroque stylings of Lynch. It is perhaps unfortunate that a better balance between the two could not be struck in S3, but Lynch clearly wanted to make a heavy symbolic point and Frost’s painstakingly constructed narrative as seen here seems to have been the victim.

Enjoyable

For fans of Twin Peaks, this summarises and ties up a few loose ends from the series. I didn't enjoy this as much as the Secret History, as it felt more like a summary of what had happened. I also feel a bit cheated, for a series, and director, who likes to leave things unexplained this felt a bit too spoonfed the plot. Enjoyable nonetheless as a fan of the series.

Hell-oh!

Mark Frost's previous foray into the background of Twin Peaks proved to be an interesting read. This book, on the other hand is not as good as read. The only thing that I really liked about the book was finding that my guess about the identity of the girl in Series 3, Episode 8. Other than that, the book seemed less well-thought out and more like an afterthought, a collection of rejected ideas for the first book.

A must have for Twin Peaks lovers

Read it in 2 days in the evenings. It baffled me how much it reveals about the last 25 years and also about the current season. Margaret’s letter is also a tear jerker. Very different from The Secret History with more factual information and less art work
