I think Ghost already done a good job for you by making a clean wipe.
If you can't recover using a partition recovery tool, probably others would not work neither.
There is very slim chance to recover your data on your own once you have wiped your laptop.
 you can use third part vendors that can recover the data for you .you can try the vendor near to your location they charge a lot. but again depends how crtical your data was
dive is completly gone, thanks for the help guys.
