Is there any way to recover a deleted save game?

I had a game where my party was pretty close to done--they were cleaning up the Rapax Rift. I had also just started a new party.

When I got home from vacation, I decided to play with the new party a little. Unfortunately, when I tried to save game, it actually asked me "Delete this game?" But I'm so used to quickly saving that I didn't notice the text. I must have noticed something wrong because I actually did it again.

Anyhow, the first game I agreed to delete was my almost-finished party of most excellent adventurers. I know one should save multiple slots, but I expected death by Dark Savant, not Delete Bugs! I do have the party saved in another slot, but it's so far back that I would rather just go through with a new party.

So, my question is, is there any way to recover deleted saved games? They don't appear to go into the Recycle Bin.

FYI, this bug has happened again (trying to save brings up "Delete this game?"). It appears to happen in the Monastery, in the hallway between the area with the door bolted from the other side (with King Crab) and the observatory where you can look out on the cavern with the Tanika fish.
