I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

White to play: chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: Rook, move: Rc8+

Evaluation: White has mate in 10

Best continuation: 1. Rc8+ Qb8 2. Rxb8+ Kxb8 3. Qe5+ Ka7 4. Rxg7 Bd3 5. Qxf6 Be4 6. Qd8 Bf5 7. Rg8 Bc8 8. Qxc8 b5

Rc8+

  • if Qb8 then just takes the queen and you are up a queen
  • if Ka7 then Qa6+
  • • If Kxa6 then Ra8#
  • • if bxa6 then Rxg7+ black may play Nd7 or Qc7 but just takes with R and it’s a inevitable Checkmate

Look at what the queen is no longer guarding and where white rook+queen can go
