The Torchwood Archives was a Torchwood novel. It retold the events of the TV series up until Exit Wounds, via the narrative device of an in-universe exposé on Torchwood Three's activities, created by one Warren Martyn.
The framing device was that the book's near-publication by Garden Tower Publishing was suppressed by Torchwood themselves to preserve their secrecy, leading to the presence of multiple notes from Ianto Jones — as the text of the book was suggested to be a facsimile of the only surviving copy, as held within Torchwood's own archives.
