Black is threatening queen exchange with 22. ... Qf6. so 22. Nf7 I think looks more reasonable.

Resign. Or he can try the fruitless 22...Nf6 and white will reply 23. Qh4 with the threat of 23...Nxh7 24. Qh7# or otherwise black plays any other move and 24. Rh8+ Bxh8 25. Qh8#

That just drops the rook on h7 for nothing. 23. Qh4 is indeed much better. Black can't stop the mate without giving up his queen. The simple threat is 24. Rh8+. Some variations - 23. ... Nxh7 24. Qxh7#, 23. ... Bh6 24. Nxh6+ Qxh6 25. Qxh6 Nh5 26. Rh8#.

Black is dead meat.
