Mary Shields is a moody, acerbic probation offer, dealing with some of Glasgow'             s worst cases, and her job is on the line. Liam Macdowall was imprisoned for murdering his wife, and he'             s published a series of letters to the dead woman, in a book that makes him an unlikely hero –              and a poster boy for Men'             s Rights activists.
