qh5!!
qh5 and if Bxg5
Qxg5 Rg8
Rd8
1.Qd3 Bxg5 2.Qd8+ Rxd8 3.Rxd8#
1.Qd3 Kg8 2.Qxh7+ Kf8 3.Qxh6+ Ke8 4.Qh8#
1.Qd3 e4 and White is loosing.
Qh5? Rg8
and white still has nothing …Qb6
Black can afford to lose the bishop because they are winning.
…Qc6 covers Rd8 and black is still winning. I think:)
victor’s meaning is a little unclear, but
Qh5 Rg8
Qxh6 Rxg5
Qxg5 or Rd8+ and black resigns
Don’t get it.
1 Qh5 b2
2 Qxh6 b1/Q
Don’t see a checkmate for white.
3 Qxh7+ QxQ
3 RxQ QxR+

1. Qd3 looks clear cut
1. Qd3 e4 2. Qd8 Bf8! holds for Black.
1. Qh5 seems to be the winning move.
1.. Rg8 2. Qh6 Rg5 3. Qg5
1.. b2 2. Qh6 b1=Q 3. Qg7 mate
1.Qh5 Bxg5 and 1..b2 have been solved.
If 1..Rg8, 2. Nf7+ is strong, winning the queen.
1. Qh5 is the answer.
1 … Bxg5
2. Qxg5
And if black goes with 2 .. b2
then 3. Qg7 mate.
If black goes with 2 .. Rg8
then 3. Rd8 and white mate in 1.
And if black answer 1 .. Rg8
2. Qxh6 and white mate in 1
