Hi Christine, solid idea! Giving me last season of THE SINNER vibes with this one. As it sounds like the ex-military wife is the protagonist here, I'd suggest placing her front-and-centre of your logline to make it clear she's the protagonist, and really sell the stakes of her conflict here.
For example: 'In a quaint New England fishing town, a highly-decorated ex-military soldier seeks answers and justice after discovering her cop husband's murder is linked to a dangerous underground drug ring.'

haha Thank you! I hate doing log lines. My weakness for sure! So should I add "that involves local fishermen" at the end or just leave that for the synopsis?
If you don't mind answering that : )

No problem! You could include that part if you wanted to, although it may be best to restructure the logline just to give it a bit of oomph :)

I really like the logline, Christine Capone. I would remove "military" because we know from "soldier" that she was in the military.
