White to move and win

[need a hint?]     [Solution]     [archive]

 

1.Qxe8+

1.Qxb7 also wins, but not with a mate-in-three!

This sequence should be easy to calculate, because all of Black's responses are forced.  Did you notice that White's bishop covers the h7-square?

1...Rxe8 2.Rf8+ Rxf8 3.Rxf8

Checkmate!  1-0
