You are quite right, my friend!! The problem isn't only very nice, it's really wonderful. Here's what happens if Black King tries to capture the pawn in a2: Nxb7 Ke5; Kg6 Ke4; Kf5 Kd3; Ke4 Kb2; Kd3 Kxa2; Kc2 and now the Black King is blocked! Now White Knight move towards the unavoidable mate: ... Ka1; Nc5 Ka2 (if a2 Nc3 Mate); Nd3 Ka1; Nc1 a2 (forced); Nb3 MATE!!! WONDERFUL!
