In 1910, Melania published the book that would begin her successful collection, Najat and the Hypertheorem, the book introduced us to Najat Abitbot, an Arab journalist and spy—in editions and translations dating back to the 1970s, Najat is said to work at —working on behalf of the government of the (now the ), a British colony in the Middle East.

The book's plot unfolds after the kidnapping of an influential tycoon from Manchester, England, whose only clue to his whereabouts is left with calculations that are typical of Pythagoras's Theorem and Thales' Theorem, which leads Najat to use his math knowledge to arrive at the conclusion of the crime, she is helped by Azza, who becomes a colleague of Najat, to solve the mystery and do the calculations, at the end of the book they come to the conclusion that the whereabouts of the tycoon would simply be the sum of the result of the calculations of the two theorems, and they have to travel out of the country and travel to England, where they end up finding the kidnapped and their kidnappers.
The book was well received by Argentines and was published in Europe and other countries in the Americas throughout the 1920s, where it gained prominence and Najat was referred as Female . The national success of this inspired Melania to write another book following the spy, thus the second book of the collection, Najat at Your Majesty's Service, emerged.

Najat and Azza then leave Manchester and go to London, in order to look for enough clues to prove their theory, or at least, to be able to find some member from which they can extract clues, but something that calls their attention is when the tycoon which they saved is seen entering an alley on the sly...
