of course there is. from your last backup; you *do* backups, don't

As stated, if you care about your data, it should be backed up.
If, for some reason this wasn't the case, and it's worth the $$ to you,
take the disk off-line as soon as possible (further writes can wipe out
the remnants) and send it to a data recovery shop.
