Aye, there is nothing I like more than a deceptingly simple position (meaning, few pieces on the board), yet an incredibly complicated, unique solution. And in this case, quite beautiful as well!

Tricky!

I love "simple" puzzles like these.

I forgot to add an important sideline:

4. Nd6+? looks winning at first. But black has 4... Kd8! the stalemate motif yet again. And the win is spoiled.
