35.Ka3!!
White’s attack comes to a dead end after 35.Ne6+ Kg8 36.Qb8+ Qe8.
Another false trail is the tempting 35.Re6 Qf5 36.Qxf5 Nxf5 37.Bxf6, because of 37...h6!.
All of Black’s pieces are tied to the defence of something or other, and the only move that does not lose at once is to move out of one pin into another.
35...Ke8
However, in this case, the winning path for White is already not so difficult:
36.Ne6 Kf7 37.Qb8 Ne8 38.Re3!
The rook joins in the attack with decisive effect.
38...c4 39.Rf3+ Nf5
On 39...Nf6, the most effective move is 40.Nf8.
40.Nd4 Rxd4 41.Bxd4 Qd6+ 42.Qxd6 Nexd6 43.Be5 Ke6 44.Bxd6 Nxd6 45.bxc4 Nxc4+ 46.Kb4
With play on both flanks. The rook easily outplays the knight, and White wins.
