This is "a gender-swapped retelling of Sherlock Holmes with Watson as a sentient spaceship" set in de Bodard's Xuya Universe - "a timeline where Asia became dominant, and where the space age has Confucian galactic empires of Vietnamese and Chinese inspiration: scholars administrate planets, and sentient spaceships are part of familial lineages."

I've read the story and can recommend it. Another upcoming Xuya story with a similar pairing of characters has been announced this week.

Thanks. I could get it though living in France.
