And doesn’t ?”until he himself becomes a victim of physical and psychological abuse” just ?mean he gets “beat up” in the course of his investigation? ?Less is more; two words are better than eleven. ?And for the purpose of a logline, they are aren’t really necessary. ? It’s understood that violence comes with the job of being a detective and the genre of a murder mystery.
Essentially, the story is about a rookie detective who must solve the mystery of disappearing visitors in Berlin. ?To solve the mystery, I presume he must dive into the criminal underworld. ?If you know your subject matter, have a unique perspective, that could make for an interesting story.

Good points. ? ?But though the focus may be different in a logline for a series, brevity is still essential. ?We live in an era of ?media induced ADHD, ? of multitasking minds with ?short attention spans. ?This is especially true for the target audience for a logline — the industry movers and shakers. ?I am dubious that most of them would have the time and patience to read a 100 word logline?no matter how good it is.
