Access By Reference

There are several modules with similar functionality, and one of them may serve your needs better.  This one gives several tools for providing access to edit a node.

To use, on the configuration page, provide sets of content_type|field_machine_name. It provides access in one of three ways:
 1.  The user that can edit a referenced node can edit the subject node.
 2.  The user has a profile value equal to a field value. (User should not be able to edit that profile element)
 3.  The user is referenced in the identified field. 
 4.  The user has the email included in the identified field (may be text or email field)

Then, grant permission to a class of users to edit when referenced.

Note that for option 2, it only works at present with text and number values, not entity references.
