      Thanks!

      spoiler

      I got this one wrong, actually. I tried Qf2+ Kh1

      Qf1+ Kh2

      Qf4+ g3

      Qf3+ Qg2 (with the idea that if Kh1 instead, Qf1 then Rf2 being mate, but my rook is pinned! Whoops!)

      Qxg2 Kxg2

      Rxe7

      Which would have been a better position than the final (correct) position in the puzzle. Turns out that it is hard to move pinned pieces!
