Hello Irene, I'm writing this as I try to buy a book using Safari on my iPhone.
I've flicked around and found Go. Flicking to the left I find the text field. I entered Ann Cleeves and double-tapped Go. I set the rotor to Headings and flicked down to find the first title. Flicking left from the author's name, I found "Send as gift", then Buy now. The next screen asks me to sign into Kobo. On the next screen I entered my username and password and clicked Continue. On the next screen, I flicked right to the Buy now button and clicked it. I should now find the book in my Kobo library. I quit Safari, waited until the confirmation e-mail arrived, then launched the Kobo app and my book was there. I hope this helps.
