Richard,
The extra point makes this one impossible for me. I must ask: Is the layout 
correct? The answer is 
surely hidden to me.

Good Morning Puzzlers,

This problem is from Larry Evans' book "Chess: Beginner to Expert" available on 
tape from your NLS 
library.  Note the book uses descriptive notation not algebraic.

This is the first problem worth 3 points.

Since it is Friday, as usual this is the last problem for the week.  I will 
post my answers and some 
analysis on Monday for list discussion.

Problem 10:

1bp2Q1p/
 p2p4/
1p2p3/
5N1N/
1P1P3P/
1PP2p1K/

Points: 3
Black to mate in one.
