Hello, I’m really lost with this logline, I miss a clear main character, a clear goal, and a strong concept.
I can’t be sure about the tone either, is it a black comedy (everyone wants to kill everybody else) or a serious thriller? Since the premise of a unknow author would be best seller book is highly unbelivable, this could works better in a black comedy. The only valuable manuscripts are the well known author’s manuscripts.
I’m not sure about what you mean by “deputy” (maybe it’s just me, I’m not an english native speaker).
You must make a creative decision: who is your main character? Then write the logline form his point of view.
Speaking about stolen manuscripts, I suggest you to check out theese links :

A dangerous serial killer is the only survivor in a plane crash, when she was transported to a different prison, she is rescued by tibetans from remote high mountain village. After being treated from her injuries she faces a choice to leave the village or to merry 7 brothers of a family who took care of her, according to their matriarchal tradition.
I personally don't like loglines that focus on a choice. A choice is a matter of just?one?scene (or of a boring movie). I'd like to see more clearly a goal and what opposes to it.

I miss a main character, and an inciting event (in the present). The 'butcher' feels not organic, not specific to THIS?story.
