    Today we have a full plate of pieces to play with…

    1. Qh7+ Kf8 2. Nh6 looks very tasty.

    black now has no options – if BxN Qh8 is mate.

    and all black Q moves are bad – white has Qg8+ Ke7 and Qxf7+ – just resign!

    1.Rxd7 Qxd7 2.Nf6+
    (a) 2. …Bxf6 3.gxf6 ( threatening checkmate with 4.Qh8# ) Qd1+ ( or 3. …Qd2+ 4.Bxd2 Rd8 5.Qh8# ) 4.Bxd1 Rd8 5.Qh8#
    (b) 2. …Kf8 3.Nxd7+ +-
