[d] 1k3b1q/pP2p1p1/P1K1P1Pp/7P/2B5/8/8/8 w - - 0 1

1.Kd5!, freeing the way to trap the queen

Here exists two solutions:

1.Kd5 Qg8 2.Bb5
1.Bb5 Qg8 2.Kd5 (transposition)

Wow; Good one! The subtleties in this position are far too clever for Stockfish 6 on my machine. When I feed in the move 1Kd5 it does eventually find a mate in 26 moves but not without more help.
