Hey Francisco, solid concept. The 【entity-FBI¦canonical_name=FBI】 + "spy thought dead" setup gives you instant stakes and a clear genre.
For me what's missing is the emotional hook + unique twist. Right now it reads like Mission Impossible meets The Americans. What if the "abrasive veteran" is the one who let the spy escape 20 years ago? Or what if the spy isn't Chinese but someone from the agent's own family?
Add 1 detail only you can write from your world and this jumps from 4.0 to 5.0 for me. Right now: 4.0/5. Keep pushing .
