Is it really as simple as:

2. Rxd2 Nf3+
3. K moves (Kf1 or Kg2) Nxd2 (-+)

Nice combination. Black starts the massacre of white’s forces by 1. … Rxd2!!. The threat now is Nf3+ followed by checkmate either by Qh3 or Qh1 depending on where the white king goes (the knight was defending f3). So the white rook is now forced to vacate e2 to make an escape route for the king. If he doesn’t take the black rook or move to e3, the original mate threat is unabated, so we need to consider only Re3 and Rxd2. 2. Re3 is losing because the only defence to 2. … Rd1+ is Re1, when the original threat comes back. So we have now:
1. … Rxd2!!
2. Rxd2 Nf3+
3. Kf1 Qh1+ (3. Kg2? Qh3#)
4. Ke2 Qe1+
5. Kd3
Now black can either take the black queen, or continue his cleanup with 5. … Qxd2+. I think the cleanup is better as it is mostly forced, like:
5. … Qxd2+
6. Kc4 Qb4+
7. Kd5 Qd4+
8. Kc6 Qxa4+ picks up the white queen. The whole sequence appears to be forced except white’s 7th move, which has an alternative:
7. Kd3 c4+
8. Kc2 and white now appears to be headed for checkmate, or 8. Ke3/e4 loses the queen to Qe1+.
