    You should really start the puzzle after 1. Nf3 since Bxf3 is by no means forced and, without that exchange, the knight is slightly missplaced. Instead, 1. Ne4 is probably stronger where if black responds 1... Rd4 forking queen and knight, white has the very strong reply of 2. Qf7 hitting the bishop and indirectly defending the knight. 2... Bxe4 3. Qxe8 Rd1 4. Qe6+ followed by 5. Rxe4 and white has won a rook. 2... Rxe4 3. Rxe4 and black cannot recapture the rook in light of 3...Bxe4 4. Qxe8#
