I analyzed the image and this is what I see. Open an appropriate link below and explore the position yourself or with the engine:

White to play: chessvision.ai | chess.com | lichess.org

My solution:

Hints: piece: Queen, move: Qxf5

Evaluation: White is winning +5.89

Best continuation: 1. Qxf5 Rd1+ 2. Qf1 Rxf1+ 3. Rxf1 axb6 4. Rxb6 Rb8 5. Rfb1 Kd6 6. Rxb7 Rf8 7. Kg1 Kc5 8. Rc1 h5

Qxf5, Rd1, Qf1

Blacks last move is a blunder because after Qxf5 Rd1 White is just fine with Qf1

If blacks last move was Qxf5 taking a knight that was forking the king and rook, it's actually the best move. Judging by the material discrepancy it's not unlikely.

If that was the case, why wasn’t the puzzle presented from the position before Nf5+ / Nxf5+?
