He is the head of the Municipal Police of the town of Tomelloso, in La Mancha (Spain), far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and cosmopolitan places like Paris or London. His actual name is Manuel Gonz\u00e1lez, but everyone knows him as Plinio. He does not stand out for his physical attractiveness, his existential crises, his moral problems, nor does he have a torturous past. Plinio is simply a quiet man, very much of his people, skeptical and reasonably conservative, and he is, above all, a police officer who pursues crime calmly, but with determination and spectacular intuition.\r\n\r\nHis nickname is a family legacy: a great-uncle of his was nicknamed that way \"because of some Latin thing\u201d. Plinio\u00a0is a humble detective, an anti-hero who uses common sense and the knowledge he has of his neighbors to solve his cases. An approachable and pragmatic man who needs neither laboratories nor forensics. He pays attention to everything around him\u00a0and that is enough for him.\u00a0His best weapon is his intuition or, better said,\u00a0\"his hunches\"\u2026\u00a0he is a thoroughbred bloodhound.\r\n\r\nWith the help of his faithful friend, the town veterinarian Don\u00a0Lotario, they face the most diverse crimes-, which reflect the darkest side of their neighbors: poverty, envy, pettiness in all its manifestations... And the upper crust of town, who\u00a0are\u00a0capable of ruining\u00a0Plinio's\u00a0life with just one call to Madrid-\r\n\r\nPlinio's fame spreads like wildfire, and he is called upon to solve many cases. Like Don Quixote and Sancho, they travel through La Mancha, but instead of riding\u00a0Rocinante\u00a0and the donkey,\u00a0they drive\u00a0a Seat 600. Surrounded by all of the local rumors, they face disappearances\u00a0and\u00a0appearances, corpses, suicides, murders, and Spanish ham thefts.\u00a0In addition to all of\u00a0the local rumors.\r\n\r\nPlinio becomes so successful that, despite his adversaries, he is even called to solve some cases in Madrid.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>RELEVANT DATA: <\/strong>Francisco Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n\u00a0has his own place in the history of Spanish crime literature. With the\u00a0Plinio\u00a0collection, he became the pioneer of the\u00a0Spanish\u00a0detective\u00a0novel. Authors of the stature of Lorenzo Silva establish the bases of Spanish crime fiction in the novels of Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n, who makes use of humor, intrigue, portrayal and the customs and manners of deep Spain, moving away from British and American paradigms.\r\n\r\nPlinio is much more than an investigator who exudes humanity, he is a timeless character, socially very relevant today, and adored by generation after generation. He is reminiscent of a Spanish Father Brown (BBC). He has great potential to be a re-modernized classic like Lupin (Netflix), or Sherlock (BBC). The character\u2019s modern adaptation is not only possible but also essential.\r\n\r\nThe character of Plinio is the core of a <em>long-seller <\/em>collection consisting of a total of 31 novels. All his adventures take place in the towns of La Mancha, except for the crime of <em>The Colored Sisters (Las hermanas coloradas),<\/em> which takes place in Madrid.\r\n\r\nGarc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n\u00a0was the winner and finalist of the prestigious\u00a0<strong>Nadal Award<\/strong>\u00a0with his collection of\u00a0Plinio, the winner of the<strong>\u00a0Criticism of Castilian Narrative Award<\/strong>, the\u00a0<strong>Antonio Machado Short Story Award<\/strong>, the\u00a0<strong>Award for Police Narrative<\/strong>, the<strong>\u00a0Cinematography and Tourism Award,<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0many other\u00a0awards from the media outlets\u00a0<em>El\u00a0<\/em><em>correo<\/em>\u00a0<em>literario<\/em>,\r\n\r\n<em>Meridiano<\/em>\u00a0and the magazine\u00a0<em>\u00cdnsula<\/em>.\u00a0The writer has a literary award named after him for Best Crime Novel.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWhat the critics have said:\r\n\r\n<span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>Francisco Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n\u00a0was the first with the courage to\u00a0challenge the complexes and turn a Spanish policeman into a hero.\u00a0and turn\u00a0a Spanish policeman into a hero.\u201d\u00a0Lorenzo Silva.\r\n\r\n<span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>In Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n's\u00a0novels, picaresque and cunning go hand in hand.\u201d\u00a0<em>El Mundo<\/em>.\r\n\r\n<span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span>Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n\u00a0sought, from the beginning, to give the Spanish detective novel its own identity and for this, he turned to the memories, experiences, anecdotes, and customs that he knew, those of his own town of\u00a0Tomelloso.\u201d\u00a0<em>Goodreads.<\/em>\r\n\r\n<em><span dir=\"RTL\">\u201c<\/span><\/em>Anyone who has not read Garc\u00eda\u00a0Pav\u00f3n\u00a0should do so.
