White to move
I should spend more time training with Chess Informant. I have the first 106 issues, and hence many hundreds of combinations to solve and study.

Informant Combinations
I saw the power of the horses and the discovery/pin in this problem, but missed the deflection. The problem is from the Combinations section of Informant 106, as was the position in "Monday Morning Tactics."

It's tempting to play 1.Nxf6+, but that goes nowhere after 1...Kd8. So a second look reveals the nasty deflection . . . (must not be a spoiler!)
