Diabolical Puzzle

This position arose in a game I played via email as black.  Thankfully, white erred and I avoided many of the complications of the puzzle.

Black's fourth move of the puzzle (move 18) is particularly beautiful and difficult to spot (I spent about 5 hours going through variations to discover it and prove that it doesn't lose).  Good luck!
