He was executed by the authorities of the nascent Irish Free State during the Irish Civil War. "The Riddle of the Sands: A Record of Secret Service" is a 1903 novel by Erskine Childers. The book, which enjoyed immense popularity in the years before World War I, is an early example of the espionage novel and was extremely influential in the genre of spy fiction.
