Definitely a complicated one which requires a deeper look but look at the line
crafty displays during search of ply 10 first :-) :

 10    19.59     --   1. ... Ng8
 10    25.66  -1.00   1. ... Ng8 2. Qxf7 Bf6 3. Qf8 Re7 4.
                      Nh5 Nd7 5. Nxf6 Nxf8 6. Bxf8 Ra7 7.
                      Nxg8 Kxg8 8. Bxd6
 10    27.54     ++   1. ... Bd8!!

I'll let it run over the weekend on this one and the position after Ng8 .
