Challah! Queen trade and fork FTW! Oops, did I just spoil the puzzle for everyone else?

 You didn't spoil it, but then again you didn't get it either. The result is checkmate. Who cares about the fork?

Black's move 1 was wrong. Mate could have been avoided:

 

I agree.  I honestly don't see how this is a realistic puzzle.  I can't see a skilled opponent giving up the Q that way...

That was the best puzzle in weeks. Thank you for opening my eyes to looking for the kill instead of the just the trade. Well done!
