Summary:
It's ten years after the murders in Twin Peaks, and ten years since Special Agent Dale Cooper vanished from the Great Northern Hotel. Audrey Horne is an agent in the FBI, trying to understand the events of her past and investigate Cooper's disappearance, despite obstruction by the law enforcement of Twin Peaks. Meanwhile, Agents Scully and Mulder are dealing with a case that bears frightening similarities to the original murders in Twin Peaks.

Author’s Notes:
Special Agent Audrey Horne is entirely aphrodite_mine's idea. She wrote a ficlet – also a crossover, this time with The Inside – with Audrey and Rebecca Locke at Quantico, studying to be agents. You can read that here: Circumlocution. All credit, all kudos to aphrodite_mine for this brilliant idea that seized me and made me write this story.

Thank you to lilacsigil and heartequals, who were betas and cheerleaders and kept me writing when I would have given up long ago. You guys are so awesome, thank you.
