He holds an English degree from York University and has served as an editor for the Hong Kong Bird Watching Society Magazine and as a contributing field editor for Asian Geographic.

In "A Siege of Bitterns," the first Birder Murder Mystery by Steve Burrows, Inspector Domenic Jejeune is reassigned to Saltmarsh, a prime birding location in Norfolk. Despite his success as a detective, Jejeune's true passion is birdwatching, not policing. His two worlds collide when he investigates the murder of an ecological activist, theorizing that a feud over birdwatching lists may be the motive. As the case progresses, a second murder complicates matters, and Jejeune must navigate public acclaim, colleague mistrust, and his own insecurities to solve the Saltmarsh birder murders.
