Synopsis

Sturgeon Award nominated short story.

Mike has it all: a loving wife, a bright son, a steady job, and a house on a lake. Then why does he feel as though he had locked himself in and thrown away the key? And what is the meaning of the disturbing dream that haunts him night after night, the one in which he is revealed to be a coward? In a horrifying moment that shatters his tranquil life, his courage will be put to the ultimate test.

Heroics originally appeared in Isaac Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine, November 1987. It is included in the collection Think Like a Dinosaur and Other Stories (1997).
