The unique selling point in this logline is that the protagonist has dual and dueling personalities.

But it's not clear to me how the duel complicates the effort to achieve the objective goal. Is one personality opposing and subverting the efforts of the other to bring down the child-trafficking network? Or..?

Also, the objective goal should be the focus of the logline, not the backstory, not subjective issues. Subjective issues and/or backstory should serve the primary objective goal.
