Identification and interpretation of conflict/s
Well I am identifying the conflict in the beginning of the book. The conflict is Sergey Nikolay'ch Golovko and Anatoliy (driver/ ex. Spetsnaz spec ops soldier) are driving to work. They get caught by morning traffic at a busy square. When they are stopping near an alley a dump truck is stopped. A man rolls up from the ground holding a RPG-7. Sergey notices him and shouts at he driver to move. Then a puff of smoke comes out of the RPG. The RPG hits another White Mercedes and explodes. The person was trying to assasinate Sergey, but failed when the RPG hit the car in front of him.
