Quick handbrake question before I dive in and inspect.

I have a safety inspection coming up and the handbrake simply does not work. I'm able to raise it 4-5 clicks with great difficulty (almost like I'm really just stretching the cable) but there is no hold whatsoever on the rear wheels.

Can anyone comment on what I should be on the lookout for when I start pulling stuff off?
