Meet me in Perth, West Australia, late this month.

Hi, guys, I'm going to attend an International Palliative Care Conference held in Perth of West Australia between 23rd and 27th this month.
Wish I can meet up with you there. Telephone number the same.
Could someone tell me how to make the most from this trip since this is the first time for me in Perth?
I plan this trip early in this February. Before visiting a new city, I will buy a best seller novel either with a story surrounding this place or the author is closely attached to the city, trying to get a glimpse of or set up a good imaginative impression of the very city. For Perth, I've read the novel, Cloudstreet (1991) by Tim Winton. Frankly speaking, the novel is readable but to me, a little bit boring. Sorry to say that. Probably right before that novel, the previous one, The Secret Supper by Javier Sierra, was a automatic page-turner. Of course the story is nothing to do with Perth.
Shall I get a new copy with story surrounding Perth and interesting enough to be carried along the trip? Suggest one to me, please, if you could.
Anyway, see you.
