  Ng5. Black is toast. If Nxg5, Qxg5 and it’s over quickly. If black goes Bxh6, white replies Bxh7+ Kg7, Ne6+ Kxh7, Qc2+ then Black’s queen will have to say adios!

  If black king goes to h8 after Bxh7+, then Nxf7+ Rxf7, Qxh6 Rxh7, Rf8+ Rdxf8, Qxf8#

  2. Bxg7 Kxg7
  3. Qg5+ Kh8 or Kh7
  4. Qxh5+ Kg8 or Kg7

  I really don’t think this puzzle is that easy.actually, a double sacrifice may not be sufficient.
  ex:
  1. BxN+ KxB
  2.BXB kXB
  3. Qg5+ Kh7 (Kh8 loses quicker)
  4. QXp+ Kg7
  5. and now Ng5 wont work because black has 5..f5
  and the king scapes the checks.

  instead
  5.NXe5 (the idea is that if 5….PXN then 6. Qg5+ Kh7 7.Rf6 and next move mates.

  now black can either try 5….f6 or 5..f5

  5…….f6
  6. Qg6+ Kh8
  7. RXP RXR (forced since white threats Qh6+,Qg5+,RH6++)
  8.QXR+ and that mates

  5……f5
  6.Qg5+ kh7 (6….Kh8 7.Ng6 loses)
  7.Qd7+ Kh6
  8. Nxd7 and I think white is winning

  3. Qg5+ Kh8 or Kh7
  4. Qxh5+ Kg7
  5. Ng5 f5
  6. Qh7+ Kf6
  7. Ne4+ mate
