Stated plan

Play Qd1+ forcing Kg2, then exploit the open back rank to win the rook on g1.

Resolves to d5d1 · lost a forced mate

Reasoning

Black's queen can swing to d1 with check, since the d-file is completely open and the king on f1 is on the same rank as d1 with e1 empty between them. White's rook on g1 cannot block on e1 (it would have to jump over its own king), and the king cannot reach e1 or e2 (both attacked) or g1 (occupied), so the only legal reply is Kg2. This clears f1, after which Black's rook can swing to e1, hitting the g1-rook while being defended by the queen, winning material (Rxg1+ cannot be answered by Kxg1 since the queen guards g1). This sequence wins at least a rook for Black.
