The Bancroft Strategy: Robert Ludlum

This was a very long book with a lot of characters that just confused me. A woman, Andrea Bancroft, is a successful banker and is contacted by the "Bancroft foundation" which was charitable foundation of her late father's family. She begins looking into their paperwork and thinks her mother's drunken car accident death is suspicious as well as the money going into poor countries right before their leader is ousted. The leader of the group is the mysterious "Genesis" who starts tracking Andrea for getting into the foundation's secrets. Andrea meets up with a CIA agent who is looking for a friend that is seemingly kidnapped in the Middle East. For a while we think the friend is genesis, but it ends up being Andrea's cousin who is in charge of the foundation. Andrea's teenager cousin ends up saving her life, by stopping his father's obsession with playing God. In the end after the unlce and the rough cia man are shot, and killed Andrea is i charge of the Bancroft foundation and starts making those decisions of killing people off who get in the way of what she feels is right.
