31... g6 32. Ra8#
A very difficult and tense game, for both players I suspect. White had to make good a large material investment; Black to find ways to free up her game. Maybe White has the most fun in this kind of game? I think Black was doing fine up until her 20th move (...Qxa2?). It shows how double-edged games like this can suddenly capsize into a disaster for one side.
