Epub Search bug, cause identified
After some more testing and re-testing, I have found what is causing search to fail on some epub's. Books that don't have a Toc entry for every file.

It's kind of ironic that search works perfectly for the same books in Kepub, (which traditionally has problems with such content.)

I'll have to try it with a book I know fails to search properly.

Here's a shareable reproducible example.

https://www.transfer.sh/mLqSA/Dereli...am%20John.epub

hint to Kobo Devs: Epub opf files have a section called <spine> Using it would fix annoyances with Kepub as well.
