I am tempted to try Qf2
Bf3#
… exf
What next ? I couldn’t find a way forward
1….. Qf2 looks by far the best. 2… Bxf3+ is threatened which can not be captured because of x ray attack on Q. white can play 2.Rcb1 to protect q but 2… Rc2 will be diasaster for white.
What if 1. … Qf2 2. Qe5
1…Qf2 2.Qe5 (karthik, this is good looking defence but is not sufficient.) Bd5
(Now if white plays 3.Rxc4 Bxc4 and the “f” pawn becomes very weak.driving away black Q by 4.Rf1 black plays 4… qa7 and black n is in trouble.)3.Rab1 f6 4.Qb2 Bxf3+ 5.exf3 Qxb2 6.Rxb2 Rxc1+ 7.Kg2 Ra8 8.Nb4 Rxa5
