Lucy and her three best friends share a glamorous but decaying house in the heart of Georgetown. They call themselves βthe Sweetiesβ and live an idyllic post-grad lifestyle complete with exciting jobs, dramatic love lives, and, most importantly, each other.
But when Addie, the groupβs queen bee, discovers that her ex-boyfriend Josh has gone missing, the Sweetiesβ worlds are turned upside down. In the days leading up to his disappearance, Josh, a star investigative journalist from a prominent political family, was behaving erraticallyβand Lucy is determined to find out why. All four friends upend their lives to search for him, but detectives begin to suspect that the Sweeties might know more than theyβre letting on.
As the investigation unfolds, Lucyβs obsession with the case reaches a boiling point, and with it, her own troubling secrets begin bubbling to the surface of her carefully curated life. A thrilling account of the lies and delusions that lurk beneath cloistered groups of female friends and the sinister realities of celebrity,Β Watch Us FallΒ is a gripping mystery and an examination of the things we tell ourselves when we canβt face the truth.
