I should be glad of any help with 18 across (is it Hilary; if so why?)
and 24 across. I'm toying with hype, but where does Longfellow's conclusion fit in? And why noir?
Bless you for any help!

Thanks, Christiana.
The clues are as follow:
18ac. Designation of Stevenson hero suggested by Ainsworth (6) I have H?L?R?
24 ac. Longfellow's conclusion to this publicity may have been seen as noir (noir is in italics) (4)
I have H?P?
Good luck, and thanks again for your interest.

Haven't found out too much but Ainsworth wrote a novel called Hilary St Ives V1. I couldn't find out any details about what it's about. Perhaps you'll have better luck.
I wonder if 24a could be hype, but I haven't looked into that yet.

24a Longfellow wrote Hyperion..take away noir to give HYPE.

Thanks, friends. Hilary and hype will do nicely. The hype clue was especially cunning.
