1. Qh7x+!
Qh7! Kh7 Rh5 mate.
Nearly all of white’s pieces pointing at the black king!
Qxh7ch!
Qxh7 Rh5 Rh8#
Qh7 and mate is unavoidable, though, it is easy to miss the pin on g6 on white’s second move.
1. Qh7+ Kh7
2. Rh5+ Kg8
3. Rh8#
It’s a beautiful forced mating pattern!
1. Qxh7+ Kxh7
2. Rh5+ Kg8
3. Rh8 mate
A simple one.
Qxh7+ Kxh7 only move
Rh5+ Kg8 only move
Rh8#
