1. Qb8#
It's a selfmate. White must force black to checkmate white
Are you sure you have the position correct?
I put it in Problemiste and it says there's no solution.
Maybe because it is supposed to be black to move? Actually, that doesn't look possible either -.-
Selfmate starts with white move
I think the solution may be 1. Nb6 threatening 2. Nxg7+ Qxg7 3. Kf5+ Qxe5#
1...Bg3 2. Qb8+ Bxb8 3. Bxf7+ Qxf7#
1...Bb1 2. Kd5+ Kd8 3. Kc4+ Nd6#
The Bb1 variation is quite astonishing.
