The threat is Rg8+ deflecting the queen followed by Qe7#. 1. ... Bc8 2. Rg8+ Kd7 3. Qd8# doesn't help.

"What is the continuation? I don't see from this position white win."

 

2. Rg8+ Qxg8 (Qf8 is the same outcome) 3. Qe7# is what I see.

 I realize I may have disappointed some of you by not doing the whole thing. But I thought that the various continuations would be so obvious, and black's position so hopeless would be unnecessary. After looking at it though, I probably should have put the whole thing in.
