100 najlepszych powieści kryminalnych wszech czasów
100 najlepszych powieści kryminalnych wszech czasów – opublikowana w 1990 roku lista powieści kryminalnych uznanych za najlepsze w historii przez Stowarzyszenie Pisarzy Literatury Kryminalnej (ang. Crime Writers’ Association, CWA). Pięć lat później Mystery Writers of America (MWA) opublikowało podobną listę. Obie listy w znacznym stopniu się pokrywają.
