Absolutely a killing move, threatening 16.Rxe7.
15…Nc6 16.Rxe7!
Anyway!
16…Qxe7 17.Re1 Ne8 18.Qd1
By now Black is a rook up, but her king and queen are too heavily targeted.
18…Qf6 19.Nd5 Qg6 20.Nc7 Bg4 21.Qd5
Black’s position is hopeless.

White to move
21…exd5 22.Re1.
22.Rc7 Rd7 23.Rxd7 Qxd7 24.Nc5 Qc8 25.Qxb7 Nc6 26.Qxc8+ Rxc8 27.Nxa6 Ra8 28.Nc7 Ra5 29.Rc1 Nd4 30.Bf1 Kf8 31.a3
Black resigned.

How should Black make use of his lead in development?
11.cxd6 exd6 12.0-0 Rfe8, and at least Black wins back the pawn.
11…dxc5
Winning back the pawn, but the position becomes more static. A more dynamic approach was 11…Nd7!? 12.cxd6 exd6, when Black seems to have sufficient compensation for the pawn, as White is still struggling with her development.
12.f3
And now 12…a5 seems a valid try, pressing the b3-knight and vacating a6 for the bishop. Black is OK.

Does 10.h4 make sense when Black replies 10…0-0?
