Sinister chess problems

.who is to move/do the mating?
you didn't specify

anyway, being a novice, I would be tempted to try to get the rook involved by moving it up to the fourth rank, and picking off the pawn after Nf6 and then Nh(whichever square was protected by pawn)
but that's just because i'm a novice and i'm at school, and I have to leave for class right now, so I can't think too much about your puzzle
good bye

This is my first (pretty primitive) chess problem. White to move! What happens? Please, higher rated players, I know that you are familiar with the anwser if you look only for a second. Let the lower rated players reply 🙂[fen]8/4q3/1rpnpn2/1pk1Kbb1/1pp1pp2/8/3P4/4r3 w - - 0 1[/fen]
