Penelope Dare, a teenaged girl with an active imagination, writes the best-selling novel Wickedly Yours. The book appears to be a thinly-veiled Roman à clef about Dante's life of crime. Meanwhile, Vic and Manny, thieves who've just robbed a furrier, believe the book is true and set about to have Dante fence their stolen items, which the Inferno staff mistakenly accept on delivery.
