Penguin is a publisher that tends to do these.

Another issue is that, for various reasons, books on Kindles can have the cover as the last page. If the books is converted to epub, that might not be moved or identified properly. That will probably trigger this issue on a Kobo device.
The book is an original epub, not converted from Kindle. And note that I used Calibre to download and add a cover, to no effect. I presume, perhaps incorrectly, that Calibre would position the cover where it can be read by the e-reader.
