Qxc6 bxc6 nxa7 bxa7 ba6 mateā€¦ nice puzzle

But the king gets away after 2. Nxa7. They don't have to take back. I don't know what the solution would be though. Maybe Nxa7 first so they have no choice but to take back, then Qxc6+?

The right sequence is
1. Na7+ Bxa7 only move
2. Qxc6+ bxc6 again only move
3. Ba6 mate
