Amazon metadata import failure

I bought the book shown in the attached screenshot today, but after de-drming and converting to epub, the download metadata filed, as detailed in the spoiler text:
Spoiler:

The only relevant result is Amazon, as it's Amazon-only. I did try the same search on the de-drm'd azw3, and also tried adding (and then substituting) the ISBN of the paperback edition. Same result. What am I doing wrong?
