Meromorphic continuation and rationality of the abscissa of the zeta function follow as corollaries. If $G$ is moreover a pro-$p$ group, we prove that its twist representation zeta function is rational in $p^{-s}$. To establish these results we develop a Clifford theory for twist isoclasses of representations, including a new cohomological invariant of a twist isoclass.
