Ebere has a theory that a killer is out there that claims his victim every Christmas, and she believes their best friend Janet was one of his victims.
She carried the burden of guilt, thinking about all the things she could have done to avoid her brother's dying, blaming herself for even starting the chain of events that led to his death.
The book, rather than being plot-based, is character-based. It follows the development of a character from being a juvenile psycho to being mature.
The entire thing is a complex weave of even more complex characters, themes of violence, betrayal, love and redemption.
The plot becomes more complex here as the author continues from where he left off in Words of Radiance. So far, I have a feeling the main storyline is yet to start.

The game creator, Hideo Tanaka, enlists her help to catch the person responsible for hacking and gaining information from the Warcross code by going undercover by competing in the Warcross games.
The world-building is great, the plot is good, I love the character in this book so much, and the ships aren't that bad. The story is also diverse, something we all look for in books these days.
His relationships with his loyalists improve, even as his journey of self-discovery gathers pace. He now sees them in a light that better mirrors his rapidly-evolving psyche.
