Queen and rook sac leads to mate on h3, in five moves, beginning with 1. Q xh6!! 2. Rh4 and 3. f4!!
1. Q:h6 K:h6
2. Rh4+ Kg5
3. f4+ K:h4
4. g3+ Kh3
5. Bg2#
Nice!
Straightforward mate in 5.
1. Qxh6+ Kxh6 (only legal move)
2. Rh4+ Kg5 (if 2..Kg7 3. Rh7#)
3. Rag4+ Kf5 (only legal move)
4. f4 (now e5 is protected and there are no escape squares, Be4 or Rg5 is unstoppable)
4..Qh6 5. Be4#
4..Rxc6 5. Rg5#
So an example line:
1. Qxh6+ Kxh6 2. Rh4+ Kg5 3. Rag4+ Kf5 4. f4 Qh6 5. Be4#
1) Qh6+, KxQ (forced)
2) Rh4+ kg5
…..if kg7, rh7#
3) a4-f4, and whatever black does it cannot stop either nh7# or ne4#
1. Qxh6+!! Kxh6
2. Rh4+ Kg5 (If Kg7, Rh7+ checkmate)
3. Raf4!!
4. Nh7+ checkmate
Qxh6
Qxh6
Qxh6
Qxh6
1. Qxh6+ Kxh6
2. Rh4+ Kg5 (If Kg7, then Rh7#)
3. Raf4
If black queen tries to defend h7 then 4. Ne4#. If black knight tries to defend e4 with 3…Nd2, then 4. Nh7#
Have I missed anything?
Qxh6+!!
Always remember CCT (checks, Captures and threats) hence is there a check white can play?

After Qh6+ the king must capture. Then Rh4+ Kg5 (if Kg7 then Rh7 is mate), Rag4+ Kf5 Be4#
A lot easier (I think!) than the
