The author, Paul Mayersberg, commented on this in an NPR interview on the program Fresh Air on May 16, 2000. He said, "You can look at it in many ways. It's a coincidence. An unpleasant and unhappy circumstance. Or it was designed and deliberate for plot reasons. There is no possible way ... Jack can determine what that is."
Thus, I infer that Jack did not kill her.
Mayersberg continues:
"My point ... was intended to be ... when you become involved in a world where you get superstitious ... you also come across the problem of coincidence. You don't know whether a coincidence is part of a design - the origin of which you don't know - or is just a random event. ... I wanted to show that all events are random. ... you can't let anything go once you become hooked on gambling because it's so close to superstition and witchcraft."
