weird kobo search results

What's up with the Kobo shop's search engine? Twice in a few days now, I've had the experience that I searched for an author's books in the Kobo shop (the Dutch version) only to come up with zero results.
Then when I searched for author name + epub on Google, it did give me a Kobo result. In one case it was for Caoilinn Hughes, the second time for Donald Antrim.
So okay, they do have their book. I can even buy it.
https://www.kobo.com/nl/nl/ebook/one...e-and-survival
https://www.kobo.com/be/nl/ebook/gathering-evidence-7

But again when I click on the underlined name on that book page, which would normally get me a list of all of this author's books Kobo carries, it says: sorry, no books found for this author. But I just came from the page where it DID say they sold one of their books.

Looks like their shop database is seriously fucked up. Anyone else notice this?
