This puzzle tests the limits of mere mortals.  This is mate in three, white to move.

Hmmm, there seems to be an error in my puzzle. 

Thank you ChessBoy7777 for finding it.

I don't see mate in 1 from Nb3, but I think it's correct....

1.Nb3+ d2 2.Rg3+ Rd3 3.Qxd2#

2... Kb4 and I don't see any mate.

Chessboy7777, Rdxe5+ Kf4 and I don't see how to prevent mate...

I found it all by my lonesome with Nb3+!!!  On your line what happens if instead of Bc6 black plays NxE5?
