“When his syndicate boss is murdered, a genetically engineered assassin must clear his name before he is tracked and killed by three deadly assassins.”

Possible title: Death comes in threes?
Fancy words does not a fancy logline make. Why say patriarch when, as Richiev has done, you could say Boss.

For what it’s worth, this is by far the best logline of yours that I’ve read. Largely because it’s simple. It’s a simple story, with a simple character, dramatic irony (assassin being targeted),?an inciting incident that clearly upsets the balance in his life and an obvious primal goal (survival and to clear his name) that will correct the imbalance.
All of the best stories are remarkably simple. This one interests me and I’m keen to see your next version. Just make sure that you don’t lose the hook – to me that’s the whole genetic engineering bit. Keep that front and centre!
