I’m a new chess player and do not understand why the solution to this puzzle is Qc2+ instead of something like Rb8, Qf5, g4 I don’t really understand what black could do here to save the Queen?

    Qc2+ is a fork that wins the rook,
    though I don’t see how blacks queen is in any danger in this position.
