At the moment all White's mating threats are covered by the four black pieces on the back rank, so how can White break the deadlock? White to play and mate in two.

What if blacks move was Rxe4 🙂

The move Rh1 leads to that all black move will be mate in one for white. Not Rh3 because of Bg5 for black.

Nd3

If Re7 then Rh4 wins

If black will play along then....
