    BTW, what does the +- mean?
    1. Qxf8 check, Rxf8 (forced)
    2. Rxh7 check, Kxg7 (forced)
    3. Rh1 check and mate.

    No, there is a move Bh3. After Rxh3 it is mate.

    Can you write in a clear, understandable way? I just don't think that this is a forced mate. Because, according to what I found and to the answers, there is something better.

    what you are looking for is probably Rd8+ Qxd8 Qe6+ Kh7 Rxh6 gxh6 Qf7#, but I dont see whats wrong or not clear about my answer.

    EDIT: okay, after Rf7 black can play Rh7 Rd7 Qxd7 Rxd7, but thats still an easy win for white.

    There were a couple notation mistakes. Black's Rf7 should have been Rf8, and Kxg6 should have been Kxh6.

    Also, Fritz points out after 1.Qb3+ Kh7 2.Qf7 Qe8! is a more stubborn defense.

    That's exactly what I was looking for. The only refutation is after Rd8+ go Kh7, but then white is a queen up and that's a win also.
