It turns out that you could have wrecked me early on in one of our latest games. White to move.

Nope. The answer guarantees that you win my rook or better. It's a tough one. First thing to look at in puzzles is all potential checks and captures.

Lol, yeah, it's tricky. Bxf7 Kxf7 Qa4+
If king moves forward he'll get mated quickly.
So black his to play g6. Then white plays Qd5+, forking rook and king.
