In some books it'll only show snippets, where

a) sometimes the snippet returned doesn't even contain the search term

b) you'll only get the snippets for the first three results, and that's that.

There might be even cases where the book is indexed, but the publisher has disabled even snippets, but I'm not sure about that. But a very limited snippets-only search instead of a full preview is certainly a thing.
