This book is what's happening to everyone else while Rand cleans saidin in the last chapter of Winter's Heart. Pretty much the whole book takes place in about 2 weeks. Although it is jam-packed with the plot actually moving forward.
The assault on the Tower is moving forward quickly (though a plot about murders of Aes Sedai is added). The uncovering of Black Ajah in the Tower is moving forward (though Alviarin isn't outed, just deposed as Keeper). Mat's wooing of Tuon continues (and if we ever see a look through her eyes we might find out how he's doing). Perrin knows where Faile is being held and will work with the Seanchan to free her (though something about towns with undead uprising is mentioned). Rand's going to work with the Seanchan too so that's all good (though Cadsuane is still going on about needing to teach him something). And both Towers independently come to the conclusion that they should start working with the Black Tower and start bonding Ash'a'man. Neither will like it when they find the Black Tower is divided as much as the White and that they've already started bonding Aes Sedai.
