There was a mysterious plague that effects people's minds, but I can't think of any "nightflyers" in it ... although it's been a while since I read it. The Nemesis system is detected as on a collision course for the Solar System (collision as in disturbing the orbits). The spacecraft heading to it is actually like a space station, "Rotor", that decided to migrate from Earth. There is a 15yo girl on the station that plays a significant part of the story.

It doesn't sound exactly what you're looking for, but thought I'd mention it.
Thanks for replying. I looked up Asimov's Nemesis, and I'm pretty sure that isn't what I'm thinking of. I'm wondering if I'm wrong about the "Nemesis" part....
