Persistent Volume Stuck On Loading - Now all files vanished

So tried to log into Tails last night, successsfully. Was up and running for 5 minutes and a power failure happened. Second login attempt I was met with a contiously loading sign at the greeter and unable to do anything else....

Followed a couple of things online found via google (disable and re-enable peristence) etc and seemed to work. Unfortunately I now have a new persistence volume, with nothing inside but Tor Browser folder.

The shortcut on the sidebar has disappeared also. The thing I find most strange is that when I check the partion in diskutility, it was there is the same amount of data usage % used so I know the data must still be there.

I've tried everything to try and recover (file/data recovery) within tails and cannot. I am also unable to decrypt the volume outside of tails (linux recovery distro).

If anyone is able to guide me to recovery I will reward them handsomely $2000 for the recovery via bitcoin.

Help me.
