While Tigerheart's Shadow takes place during the AVoS arc, it's still possible a good portion of it will go back to the Po3/OotS era. Quote Kate Cary: "Tigerheart's Shadow! Is our hero doomed to follow in his grandfather's pawsteps, or will he create his own destiny?" Could be hinting back to Po3 where every cat was wondering if he'd end up like his grandpapa even though he was only a kit at that time. It's possible because of the fact that cats feared him, and maybe he decided to become nice to everyone. But it wasn't enough, so Tigerstar recruited him and told him that fear was power. Tigerheart wasn't easily fooled. He became a spy, but it was so stressful and the only thing to relieve that stress was Dovewing. Though it's so minor, I like how he stands up for Violetpaw and reassures Twigpaw.
"Violetpaw was only a kit when she left. And Rowanstar did tell Needletail to take her. She can't be held responsible for her decision." - Tigerheart to ShadowClan cats
"She may not be Clanborn, but she has the courage of a Clan cat." - Tigerheart complimenting Violetpaw
"Violetpaw is strong and smart. She'll be okay. And none of the cats here would seriously injure an apprentice." - Tigerheart reassuring Twigpaw

My theory is that Dovewing got pregnant at the end of Shattered Sky (note the scene where they're talking VERY seriously), and that they're going to travel away from the Clans to raise their kits. I know it's a stupid reason, but that's just the point; I have little faith in this upcoming book, due to who and what it centers around.

Doesn't mean that she's pregnant just because they were talking "very seriously". Dovewing even knew better than to have kits while Darktail was on the loose, and Bumblestripe wanted to have her kits. Dovewing is quite mature at a time like this, unlike Bumblestripe, so I don't know why you're saying she's probably going to become pregnant. I'm sure they're talking about the quest, not having kits. She has matured a lot.

Tigerheart has always been neutral on me, but I also like how he stands up for Violetpaw.
And I actually had a theory that cats might've been a little afraid of Tigerheart due to looking like Tigerstar as well as being named after him. This is even shown when his name is first announced at a Gathering when many cats were surprised by the choice in name, and even Thistleclaw clearly didn't for Tigerheart to turn on the Dark Forest cats, remarking that he was Tigerstar's kin.
As I suspected, given Kate's wording, it seems like TS will explore this concept. It might focus on PoT/OotS, but I think it's more likely that we'll get references to the events that happened in those to arc from Tigerheart's PoV, or perhaps even flashbacks.
