This is the board position during the puzzle. The puzzle itself wants White to move Bishop to e8 to check the King and then the play continues with more checks... but what I don't get is why wouldn't Black just take that e8 Bishop with their h8 Queen? There's nothing stopping them and it seems like a better move than just letting your King be pushed around by constant Bishop checks...
