What motivates her to overcome her PTSD at this point in time? Or, in other words, what is her inciting incident?
Also, "...a horrifying secret..." is too vague a description for a logline - be specific, what is it about this guy that puts the girl at risk?
Lastly, as Craig said, what is her goal? Revenge against the guy? To overcome her PTSD? To find a family?
There is a difference between someone deciding to do something and someone doing something
In your logline she 'decides to confide in a stranger', however it would be better to say, 'she confides in a stranger'.
The character intro is a little long, it reads like a shopping list and doesn't inform story. ?What does she want to achieve? We need to see that. I think the wording around "move" is confusing. ?Here is an attempt but I don't know her goal.
"Hoping to get well a girl suffering to from PTSD and hallucinations moves in with a man, but discovering his past triggers a ....."
or
"the police don't ?believes a girl with PTSD and hallucinations but her carers murderous past forcing her to carry out her own justice".
You have a good character but I can't see a story. ?The motivation, character arc etc are for the script. ?This is the quickest explanation of the story.
