In 'Los pacientes del doctor García', Almudena Grandes immerses us in a spy thriller set in post-war Spain. Dr. Guillermo García Medina, living under a false identity, becomes involved in a dangerous mission by infiltrating a clandestine network that evades Nazi war criminals. With the help of his friend Manuel Arroyo Benítez, they encounter characters such as Adrián Gallardo Ortega, a former boxer and SS volunteer, in a plot that connects Madrid and Perón's Argentina. The novel intertwines real historical events with fiction, exploring themes of identity, loyalty, and the aftermath of war.
