This is a simple hand I saw messed up by two different declarers that should have known better - see if you can avoid the same pitfall.

White vs red, IMPs, South deals and ends up in 6♠. For the sake of argument, the auction starts, 1♦-(pass)-1♥(playing inverted majors, shows four spades)-(2♥), thereafter no enemy bidding.

♠Q9xx
♥A
♦98xx
♣Axxx

♠KJ8x
♥x
♦AKQx
♣KQJx

Lefty leads a low heart (4th best leads). You win and try a small spade to the King, lefty taking it with the ace and switches to a club. How do you continue?

As a book problem this is really a beginner deal (though obviously one that people can miss at the table) so Adv+ please don't post too early.
