Belfast: Killing Edgar (P1) The IRA murder of Edgar Graham at Queen’s University

Edgar Graham was just 29 years old when the IRA gunned him down at Queen’s University in Belfast. 

The young law lecturer and unionist politician was widely believed to be a future leader of the Ulster Unionist Party. 

Forty years later, Sam McBride investigates why the IRA targeted him, whether he was set up by a colleague, and where this lost leader of unionism might have led Northern Ireland.
