It's coming now. Let's recommend another conditional move.
Raxb8 if Nxb8 then
Qf7+ and this is over.
In fact there is this that all looks forced somewhat......
Raxb8 Nxb8 Qf7+ Ke5 Qxf4+ Kd4 e5+
3 conditional moves.

Raxb8. Looks good.
Best.
Gerold.
P.S. Your line above looks like a winner if BL will cooperate.

If Qxb8 then what?
Anyway the move should be

If Raxb8 then Qxb8 it is suicide.

Actually Tano it was you who pointed out that there was no immediate need to capture on B8 after 38.f4 was first proposed bringing us to this position now
we would be in the same position now had we recaptured on B8 several moves ago..basically all transpositions after BL gobbled up the the sacrificed N after Qa1
so you have only have yourself to blame for an even more elegant win
