Sentence One: It's been common knowledge that Sanderson will reveal Asmodean's killer.
This is true. Sanderson (NOT "BS", by the way) has stated this on several occasions.
Sentence Two: It's also been common knowledge that Graendal will be in the next book due to the fact that the time lines are not all caught up to the same point.
This was explicitly stated in TMJ's linked page, and I quote:
Brandon admitted there would be overlapping chronology between The Gathering Storm and The Towers of Midnight and that Graendal’s name will be mentioned a few times.
Sentence Three: The fact that Graendal is likely dead does not affect her ability to reveal herself as Asmodean's killer in a POV from Graendal in the next book.
This is a completely logical and irrefutable (at the present) conclusion to be drawn from sentences one and two. Not necessarily how it WILL happen, but simply saying that it is still technically possible that Graendal could reveal herself as Asmodean's killer or be revealed by someone else to be Asmodean's killer.
So, now, where exactly am I wrong?

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

I don't see any reason the Graendal theory is wrong from that.

We (you, me & RJ) agree that it would be best to reveal it in the killer's PoV

So maybe Graendal didn't care enough about Asmodean, either.

If Graendal's name is mentioned, then "Graendal" is in the book. *NM*
