I think the reference to 'Magnum' in the logline is a bit unfortunate. Besides that, it's quite well-written although to begin with a dream sequence may not be the most effective hook for the reader. Regarding structure, avoid multiple flashbacks unless they are absolutely necessary to the narrative progression.
