Go down the line a bit, and you'll see that Nxh6 is crushing for white. 1. Nxh6 c3 2. Nf5 cxb2 3. Qg4 g6 4. Kh2. Search from there with any good program and hopefully it will return a positive score for white eventually. If the line 4. ...Qd7 5. Nh4 Bc6 is played, it seems to lead to mate on move 14, with the moves 6. Nc5! dxc5 7. Rxe6 Nf6 8. Nxg6+ Kg7 9. Qg5 Nbd5 10. Ne5+ Kh8 11. Nxd7 Bxd7 12. Qh4+ Bh6 13. Qxh6+ Nh7 14. Qxh7# If 3. ...Bc8, then 4. Qh4+ Rh6 5. Nxh6 gxh6 6. Kh2 Qe5 7. Ng5 Qf6 8. Re8, and white is clearly winning.
