If you google
Volvo V70 parking brake not holding in reverse
(or you could also try with e-brake, handbrake or emergency brake)
you will find that quite a few people have had this sort of trouble.
For info, is your car FWD or AWD?
Did you change the drums/discs or just the shoes?
Have you applied the handbrake a few times (when driving at 25 mph) to bed the new shoes in?
After bedding in, readjust at the wheels, then at the centre console lever.
If none of that helps, I would take the drums back off and see if there is any rust or dust sitting around which might be pooling somewhere (inside the drum).
