I see a couple of plausibles here, though I think promote and fork is a bit obvious. There's a promising alternative, though, that somehow looks like a puzzle key, but it's hard to analyse beyond that one move... [Edit] Failed, duhh! ;) Great puzzle. :)
Thank you! a brilliant study and What an initial key!
Wow fantastic study and explanation.
That knight is the devil and runs rings around the rook, from Black's point of view. Great lesson in King power also, thanks.
Simply stunning
I guessed the right first move but was not able to cover all those wonderful variations!

Great puzzle. :)
Well, my string of success has ended at one. Had I correctly solved this puzzle I was going to turn pro! It was a doozy.
Not a big fan of drawn out positions with many variations.
Didn't solve it.
