Thank you for the comment, Chess.com ROCKS!!!
a very good puzzle - got move 10 relatively ok but move 4 got me stuck for aggges!
No offense, but wouldn't Bxh7+,Ng5,Qf3,Ne7,Qf6 be checkmate?

What's the threat after Qf3, other than Qh3, followed by Ne6+ and Qh6, mating soon? How does Kg7 stop it?

RXN ? KXQ?
Yes.
5...Kxf6! Geez!
It's interesting to note that after 4. Re7 then 4. ... Qxe7 is forced as the other variations lead to checkmate. This effectively trades the Queen for a rook and knight, but it's probably not as good as the given solution.
Same problem from my first post of PUZZLE in the CASTLE, I said from my first post that there will be 2 options of attack to make a huge win for white. This time find the 2nd option, "Smash his Castle".
TIP: Force the move of Black.
