The Crime Club is an imprint of the United States publishing company, Doubleday, which was active in the 20th century. Many classic and popular works of detective and mystery fiction saw their first U.S. editions published via The Crime Club, including all 50 books of The Saint by Leslie Charteris (1928-1983). The imprint also published first editions in Sax Rohmer's Fu Manchu series.

In 1946-47, The Crime Club sponsored a series on the Mutual Broadcasting System network featuring half-hour dramatizations of their publications. This series was hosted by Raymond E. Johnson, who introduced each installment as "The Librarian".
