3heart 4club ???
In the original text it was suggested that East's first bid should have been 3diamond. That looks a bit rich to me after a third-in-hand opening from partner - after all, diamondQ could be worthless. I would settle for a quiet 2heart.

Anyway partner raises to 3heart and North bids 4club.

Now what?
