Some good potential there, though this is a synopsis, not a Logline.

As a synopsis it could do with a bit more structure and laying out of the details of the story. Ending on a question isn't altogether ideal either.

Where is it set/taking place?

What is River's world (job, relationships, background, goals etc)?

Who is the principle antagonist?

What does she win or lose if she can't uncover the truth about his disappearance?
