      What is the inciting incident?
      As a consequence of the inciting incident, what is the recruit’s objective goal?
      Who or what stands in the way or threatens to defeat his purpose?
      What’s at stake?

      I agree with dpg, this logline is missing some basic elements

      —–
      a lone recruit… A lone recruit to what, and why is he the only recruit? Does the lead have special abilities? Who is recruiting him? why did he leave?

      with a conflicted past… I would just drop this, it doesn’t add anything to the story

      marked by the return to his dark, twisted family… why would he return to them? If they are dark and twisted you should give us a compelling reason why the lead would go back to his family (Probably the inciting incident dpg was talking about)

      Now living in a divided state… What state, how is it divided, this is confusing. Do you mean a state as ‘California’ is a state, do you mean a state as a ‘country’ is a state, or do you mean a state as in ‘a state of being’?

      Chasing their one-way ticket to social class freedom… Now you have the word ‘their’ in the logline, as a result I believe you are talking about the family, because of this, the family seem to be the characters with the goal, not the lead. The logline should concentrate on the lead character’s goal not a side characters goal.

      You give us a lot of information but is either out of context or confusing for the reader. ?If there is a compelling story here it is hard to tell from this logline.

      I would re-write this logline recognizing that the reader doesn’t have all the back story and inside information which makes the logline understandable for you the writer but confusing to the reader.
