1. h7+ (this move pushes black king in the corner) Kh8 2. c4! (this move isolates the two most active pieces of black, the queen and the bishop; it opens the diagonal roentgen in order to trap the queen) and now some posible continuations for black both leading to a lost game: 2..Qxa3 3. Qxe6! Rxe6 4. Nf7# 2..Bd5 3. Qf3! Bxc4 (or 3..Bxf3 4. Nf7#)4. Ra1

2..Bd5 3. Qf3! Bxc4 (or 3..Bxf3 4. Nf7#)4. Ra1
very interesting.
1 h7+ Kh8 2 c4 Bc4! only move to protect f7 3 Qf3 Bd5! 4 Ra1 Bf3 5 Ra2 and now either 5..Bd5 or 5..Bh5. Black survives.
You found the right idea. Nf7 is the theme. what is another candidate move ?
How about Ra1? Deflect the queen from protecting the Be6. e.g. Qxa1 2. h7+ Kh8, 3. Qxe6! and white can follow up with ideas of h6, etc,.
